The saying can not be fully appreciated without the understanding of the sacredness that is embedded in every feminine soul, every woman who has direct access and honor to embody life, give birth to new spirit. Only woman is gifted to become the vessel to receive soul, the breath of God.
Also perfume has to do with the faculty of smell, which in spiritual symbology the highest sense and perfume is made from the essence. The Divine Itself is the Essence of essence.
Some place translate the last part of the hadith as, "shining light of eyes in prayer". Eyes being the mirror of the soul, when the human soul is in perfected state of prayer, in adoration of the Most High, its real Source - the Divine Light shines through the eyes which the Prophet mentions as the third object for which love was created in his holy heart.
But among all the three, love for feminine is what this post is about since without exploring the theme and its inner meaning, it leaves much room for misunderstanding. On love for women in the article: True Love Shaykh Tosun Bayrak al-Jerrahi al-Halveti also comments on the hadith. Let me quote few salient points:
This love honors the beloved; it is manifested in the Lord's order to the angels, whom He created from divine light, to bow in front of Adam, whom He created from earth and water. That is the bond between the Lord and man, and between man and woman.
Thus a trinity is formed, three in one: the Lord, man, and woman. Allah teaches men to love through His own love: that is how he made man to love woman. That is why the Beloved of Allah said, "I was made to love women." He did not say: "I loved women." He attributed loving women to his Lord.
The Prophet said that he was made to love women, nisa' - in Arabic, a plural word without a singular. He did not say imra'ah, which is "a woman" in Arabic. Thus it is not anonymous femaleness that he loves.
The Prophet of Allah, when he tells of the things he was made to love, puts woman above man. He uses the word "thalath," feminine three, not "thalathah," masculine three, and yet in the same sentence there is the word tib - perfume, which is masculine. In Arabic grammar when it is said, for example, "Fatimah and Zayd came," the verb is in the masculine form. Thus the Prophet has purposefully and ungrammatically given precedence to the female over the male. In addition to the first loved one being feminine, third loved one, salat, is also (gramatically) feminine.
The pattern is repeated thus: Dhat (Essence) is feminine; Adam is masculine; Eve is feminine. It is the concept of trinity: man (masculine) is between two feminines. They are linked : Essence to man; man to woman; woman to Essence.
While reading the book The Last Barrier by Reshad Feild i also came across a nice piece which wished to share along here:
- She is waiting to be recognized.
- Do you mean she wants to be recognized as a woman?
- I mean that she is waiting to be recognized as all women... Don't you yet realize that all women are in the same position? Until the women is recognized by man she can never be completely free. Man has forgotten too much. Yet if he recognized the woman, he would free himself. He would become complete. The woman, the earth, has been waiting so patiently...
