i think i am loving that person as i always think of him we talk on msgs n sumtyms he cals me
is it right or haram

Falling in love is NOT haraam and whoever has this misconception that it is needs to read more. Islam is based on love, the foundation of Islam is love- Allah swt has created us to love one another.

That said the little story you have provided hsha seems a bit dodgy. The guy your chatting to knows you very well- yet you do not recognise his voice? Would he be an old school friend or something, tracked you down on fb or something? Sounds weird to me! Be careful.

Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.

he may b my old schul frnd nd thanks lovd ur reply i wil see dat i dont get carried away by such things

You are right, love if done in the correct manner is not haraam (eg. In marriage) but in the above context it is haraam.

Ok i don't wanna keep repeating what has been said but it's true that love is definitely not haram, just wanna add though that if you're gonna love someone or something do it for the sake of Allah (swt).

You've mentioned that you do not know this person yet you have been messaging each other and even talking over the phone. I have to echo what's allready been said that this does sound dodgy and you should refrain from doing this as it is haram and it just doesn't sound right.

Lets reunite the ummah under one flag LA ILAHA IL ALLAH MUHAMMADUR RASULULLAH

leaving out all the vowels so ur posts are difficult to read should be haraam.

or hrm, at least.

Don't just do something! Stand there.

The meaning of love in Islam

IT is so common that the meaning of love has been restricted in the modern age to the love relationship between a man and a woman. This is a very narrow-minded view of love. Islam has is own comprehensive view of love.
-The fist type- of love that Islam calls for is the Love of Allah, praise be to Him. This love makes you avoid committing sins in order not to make whom you love, Allah, get angry with you. This love also urges you to contemplate all the different aspect of nature that usually lead you to have a deeper faith in the Creator who created all this beauty round us.

-The second type -of love is the love of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This love also makes you follow the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in all his dealings and manners. Also this love is an indication of the love of Allah as stated in the Holy Qur'an, "Say: 'If you do love Allah, Follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you your sins: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.'" Say: "Obey Allah and His Messenger: But if they turn back, Allah loves not those who reject Faith." (Qur'an, 3:31-32)

-The third type- of love is human love. It means that the Muslim has to love his other fellow men regardless of their ethnic, linguistic or cultural background. This includes love of neighbors, colleagues, relatives and even strangers. This type of love persuades the Muslim to help anybody whenever he can. There are numerous of Ahadith that exhort Muslims to help anybody who really needs help because such an altruistic act takes the Muslim one step closer to Allah.

-The fourth type- of love is the love between a man and a woman, but Islam organizes and regulates these lofty feelings within the framework of marriage because Islam views that marital love leads the couple to have a peaceful and happy family life, which is the core of the Muslim society.
In other words, this love is acceptable as long as it is within the framework of marriage and this is encouraged in a number of verses in the Holy Qur'an, "And among His signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put affection and mercy between you: verily in that are indeed signs for those who reflect: (Qur'an, 30:21)
