Four In Number.

A casual but curious reflection, upon things in Glorious Qur'an, within our self's and upon things around us, which i found to be four in number/four types.There may be many more such things but I'm unaware of those.Please share If you know.

5) The First four Caliphs of the Prophet (pbuh).

Four in our Body:

1) The human liver has four lobes: the right lobe and left lobe, which may be seen in an anterior view plus the quadrate lobe and caudate lobe, which may be seen on the visceral surface.

2)The human brain has four lobes : Frontal, Parietal, Occipital and Temporal.

3) The human heart has four chambers : Right atrium, right ventricle,left atrium,left ventricle.

4)The human heart has four valves:Tricuspid valve.Pulmonary valve. Mitral valve.Aortic valve.

5)The humans has got four different types of teeth : Incisors, canine teeth, premolars and molars.

6) Four types of taste buds.ie. sweet, salty, sour and bitter.

 Four in Feelings:

A) Four types of Love


I feel and I know love should be of Four types and here is a good explanation of it.

Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said regarding this matter:There are four kinds of love, which we must differentiate between, and those who go astray do so because they do not make this distinction. 

1) The first of them is love of Allaah, but this alone is not sufficient to save a person from the punishment of Allaah and to earn him His reward. The Mushrikeen, worshippers of the cross, Jews and others all love Allaah. 

2) The second is love of that which Allaah loves. This is what brings a person into Islam and out of Kufr. The most beloved of people to Allaah is the one who is most correct and most devoted in this kind of love. 

3) The third kind is love for the sake of Allaah, which is one of the essentials of loving that which Allaah loves. A person's love of that which Allaah loves cannot be complete until he also loves for the sake of Allaah. 

4) The fourth is love for something alongside Allaah, and this love has to do with shirk. Everyone who loves things alongside Allaah but not for the sake of Allaah has taken that thing as a rival to Allaah. This is the love of the Mushrikeen. 

(Al-Jawaab al-Kaafi, 1/134)
