The law of love states: "You love what your loved one loves, and you hate what your loved one hates".
As sincere devotees and worshippers of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, we should only do what He loves and avoid what He hates. Doing what He loves is for our benefit and avoiding things He hates saves us from harm. Therefore knowing what He loves and hates is vital in attaining is pleasure and eventually being granted Jannah.

"I have been studying at Tayyibun Institute since 2008 and last year I moved to Saudi Arabia. Although I was very happy, I soon realized that I could not seek knowledge without first learning the Arabic Language. Whilst learning Arabic I also wanted to seek Islamic knowledge. I saw some online courses but felt that it would not be as good as Tayyibun Institute, so I was very happy when I found out that they have online courses. Even though one might think that their online courses are not as good as the centre, it turned out to be better than going to the centre, not only because I live in Saudi Arabia but mainly because you will be able to study in your own time. From what I have experienced I can say that the courses at Tayyibun Institute (and online) are very much practical. Jazaahum'Allahu Khairan"
