Allah’s love
Ubadah ibne-Samit (RA) reported: I heard Rasulullah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) narrating a Hadith Qudsi from his Rabb (Allah) Tabaraka wa Ta’ala: My love is incumbent for those who love one another for My sake; My love is incumbent for those who sympathize with one another for My sake; My love is incumbent for those who meet one another for My sake; My love is incumbent for those who spend on one another for My sake. They would be seated on pulpits of Nur (light); Prophets and Siddiqin (truthful followers) will envy them for their high ranks. (Ibne Hibban)
In another narration of Ubada ibne-Samit (RA) it is stated: My love is incumbent for those who maintain relations for My sake. (Musnad Ahmad)
In a narration of Muadh ibne-Jabal (RA) it is stated: My love is incumbent for those who sit together for My sake. (Muatta Imam Malik)
In a narration of Amr ibne-Abasah (RA) it is stated: My love is incumbent for those who are friends for My sake. (Tabrani, Majma uz-Zawaid)
