Does Allah have the ability to love?

Or the more interesting question that I'm getting at: Is Allah, or any Unitarian being, capable of eternal love if said being had lived outside a causal relationship with another for an eternity? If love is to "give oneself" then what was the object of affection?

This is why all those ‘Tradionalists’ that converted to Islam (Guenon, Schuon, etc.), were completely baffled by the Trinity. They couldn’t comprehend the love of God, nor the humility of God; for them God was just intellect.

You must have a bit of a warped view of both Guénon and Schuon, they never ascribed 'Intellect' to 'God', while Guénon has written extensively on the Trinity, never stating that it is false or contradictory

I’m being a bit hyperbolic, but I think if you read what they said on the trinity they either do not understand the orthodox conception, or do not want to understand. Philip Sherrard wrote about this. Charles Utpton (a Sufi) also has an article somewhere saying something similar.

Have you read "The Great Triad" by Guenon?
