"God Almighty said: If My servant loves to meet Me, I love
to meet him, and if he hates to meet Me, I hate to meet him." (narrated by
Bukhari)
"God loves kindness when you deal with any matter" (narrated
by Bukhari and Muslim)
"You
will not enter Paradise until you have faith and you will not have faith until
you love one another. Do you want me to tell you something you can do to make
you love one another? Make it a habit to greet one another with "Asalamu
Alaykum" - peace upon you". (narrated by Muslim)
"Give gifts to each other, as this will make you love one
another." (narrated by Muslim)
"The
most loved person by God Almighty on the Day of
Judgement and nearest to Him is a just ruler. And the most hated person by God Almighty on the Day of Judgement and farthest from Him
is an unjust ruler." (narrated by Tirmizi)
"If a
Muslim loves his Muslim brother, he should inform him." (narrated by Tirmizi)
God
would say on the Day of Judgement:
"Where
are those who love each other for the sake of My glory? Today I will shelter
them with My shade, as there is no shade today except My shade". (narrated by
Muslim)
"God 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"."(narrated by Bukhari)
"If God would love his servant He would call Archangel
Gabriel and tell him "I love this person, therefore love him." And Gabriel would
love him and call out in the heavens "God 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 God would abhor
his servant, He would call Gabriel and tell him "I abhor this person,
therefore abhor him". And Gabriel would abhor him and call out in the heavens "
God 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."
(narrated by Muslim)
"God Almighty said "I am as My servant expects Me to be. I
am with him if he remembers Me. If he remembers Me to himself, I would remember
him to Myself. And if he remembers Me in a gathering, I would remember him in a
gathering, which is even better. And if My servant draws near to Me by a hand's
span, I would draw near to him by an arm's length and if he draws near to Me by
an arm's length, I would draw near to him by a fathom's length. And if My
servant comes to me walking, I would go to him speeding." (narrated by Bukhari)
"A strong believer is better and more loved by God Almighty than a
weak believer, although both bear goodness. Thus, seek eagerly what
benefits you the most and seek God's help. Do not show weakness in your struggle
and if something bad happens to you, do not say "if I had done so and so, then
such and such would not have happened", but say "it was my destiny and God has
allowed what He wished" , because the word 'if' in this context would open the
door for Satan to work on you." "A man came to the Prophet (may God's peace and
blessings be upon him) and asked him "O God's Messenger, tell me of something I
do to win God's love and people's love". The Prophet answered "Do not love this
world, God would love you and do not have a longing for whatever people have,
people would love you". (narrated by Ibn-Majah)
