Love in Hadith 02

"Allah Almighty said: "My servant draws near to Me with nothing more loved by Me than the acts of worship that I have enjoined upon him. My servant continues to try to draw near to Me with more devotion, until I love him. When I love him, I will be his hearing with which he hears, his sight by which he sees, his hand with which he strikes, his feet on which he walks. When he asks Me for something, I will respond and when he takes refuge in Me, I will grant it to him. I do not hesitate in doing anything I intend to do as much as I hesitate in seizing the soul of My faithful servant; he hates death and I hate hurting him. But death is a must for him."(Al-Bukhari)


"If Allah would love his servant He would call Archangel Gabriel and tell him "I love this person, therefore love him." And Jibraeel would love him and call out in the heavens "Allah loves this person, therefore love him." And the inhabitants of the heavens would love him. Then he would be embraced by the people of this world. But if Allah would abhor his servant, He would call Jibraeel and tell him "I abhor person, therefore abhor him." And Jibraeel (AS) would abhor him and call out in the heavens "Allah abhors this person, therefore abhor him." And the inhabitants of the heavens would abhor him. Then he would be abhorred by the people of this world."(Muslim)

Believers Love For One Another

Love is one of the greatest blessings God has bestowed on humanity.
God has created human nature in such a way that a person will take pleasure from loving and being loved, from friendship and from intimacy.
Being with people who live by the moral values of the Quran, enjoying love and friendship with them, brings a believer greter pleasure than many other blessings.

Therefore, the Paradise that God has promised to His servants whom He loves and with whom He is well place of extraordinary beauty in which true love, friendship and intimacy will be experienced with enormous joy forever. The information God provides about the life of Paradise in the Quran, always refers to joy, friendship, love, conversation,. pleasing words and peace. Everything that might prove an obstacle to love and friendship has been kept far removed from the people of Paradise.

In one verse, God has revealed that He will strip away any rancor in the hearts of the companions of Paradise:
"We shall strip away all rancor that is in their breasts; and beneath them flow rivers; and they will say, 'Praise be to God, who guided us to this; for we would surely never have been guided if God had not guided us. Verily the messengers of our Lord did bring the truth.' And it is cried to them: 'This is your Paradise; you have inherited it for what you used to do"(Al-A'raf 7:43).
