Again because everyone is familiar with the name love and even very familiar with it, sure everyone can define love in accordance with creativity, experience each.
But when we talk about ' nature ' is a love, then we should be able to recognize love objectively. That is certainly the definition of love by restoring the appropriate understanding of that truth.

In his great dictionary of Indonesian Language (KBBI) love is defined as a sense of pity, love, hope, hooked, and the like. While in Wikipedia love is defined as a positive feeling and given to humans or other objects.
Love is closely associated with life. Because every human being cannot live without a love. Everywhere we can find love. Even how could human beings born and thrive without a love that bore and build it?
So if indeed love is closely associated with life, it means that we must refer to the source direction in life and then we find the definition of the nature of a love.
Hence the question, whether the source is a clue of a life? Of course, as Muslims we hold fast to the Qur'an and As-Sunnah as a source of real life instructions.
