Why do the ignorant claim that God isnt love in Islam ?

Question

When one of God's names is al-wadud meaning:
The Most Loving, The Most Affectionate, The Beloved, The Loving-Kindness
The One who loves. The One who is the source of all love and loving-kindness.
The One Love. The One who is most affectionate. The Beloved.

The One who is deserving of all love and affection. The One who is the goal of the highest love.

From the root w-d-d which has the following classical Arabic connotations:
to love
to be affectionate
to long for, to desire, to wish for

This name is used in the Qur'ân. For example, see 85:14

Answer 1

"Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son." 1 John 2:22
believe in Jesus as lord...

Answer 2

There are easily corrupt, selfish, and ignorant Christians, yet who's to assert that the most Christians are this way? i might want to ought to respond to fake from my restricted view element in that maximum Christians I easily have met are neither corrupt, selfish, or ignorant.

Answer 3

just like you said, because they are ignorant!

I'm christen and i have Islam family. the way i have learned that God is Alla and Alla is God/ both are love. we have similarities of believes in bible and Do and Don't.....but some differences...whatever

all I'm saying is people have no right to say God isn't love in Islam nor in any religions when they don't know anything about it or if they don't believe in God/ have no religion.

Answer 4

because your God allah does not demonstrate Love read the following contrasts
quoran

“When you meet the unbelievers, strike off their heads; then when you have made wide slaughter among them, carefully tie up the remaining captives.” (Quran47.4).

"And when the sacred months are passed, kill those who join other gods with God [i.e. moshrekin.] wherever ye shall find them; and seize them, besiege them, and lay wait for them with every kind of ambush: but if they shall convert, and observe prayer, and pay the obligatory alms, then let them go their way, for God is Gracious, Merciful."(Quran 9:5)

now contrast it with the instructions of my God (not the same one)
Bible
matthew 5: 43 "You have heard that it was said, `Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
44 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?

Answer 5

There were no Gods conceived by men that offered unconditional love. All Gods are punishers in some way who set up tests to expose those who do not obey their rules. Where's the love, I ask, where IS the love?

Answer 6

I guess it's because so many of those who follow Him are doing a lot of evil things to others in this world.

Get Allah to clean up his house and change some of the Sharia Laws.

Words have little value. Let's SEE some LOVE.

Answer 7

First rule of thumb unless you want a fight on your hands never call any one ignorant, think it, never say it. All it means is you are asking for trouble.

Answer 8

CZ they are ignorant and you cant make deaf and blind ppl to hear or see the truth

Answer 9

Yup, God is Jesus Christ who is love (Islam included :-)

Answer 10

I've no reason to believe in Allah as a God of love.

Yahweh, however, has shown His love by sending His Son to die for my sins.
