Don't be Sad, Allah Loves you!


 In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.

  Ñ    Allah says:

ﷲﺍ ﻥﺇ ﺍﻭﻨﺴﺤﺃﻭ   ﻥﻴﻨﺴﺤﻤﻟﺍ ﺏﺤﻴ

which means: “…And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good…” [Al-Baqarah: 195] The slave of Allah rushes towards doing good because this entitles him to the love of Allah.

Ñ     Allah says:
ﻥﻴﺭﻬﻁﺘﻤﻟﺍ ﺏﺤﻴﻭ ﻥﻴﺒﺍﻭﺘﻟﺍ ﺏﺤﻴ ﷲﺍ ﻥﺇ

which means: “…Indeed,  Allah  loves  those who are constantly repentant  and  loves those  who purify   themselves.”  [Al-Baqarah:  222]  This   refers   to  inward  as  well  as outward purity.

Ñ     Allah says:
ﻥﻴﺭﺒﺎﺼﻟﺍ ﺏﺤﻴ ﷲﺍﻭ

which means: “…And Allah loves the steadfast.” [Aal ‘Imraan: 146]

Ñ     Allah says:
ﺏﺤﻴ ﷲﺍ ﻥﺇ   ﻥﻴﻠﻜﻭﺘﻤﻟﺍ

which means: “…Indeed Allaah loves those who rely [upon Him].” [Aal ‘Imraan: 159]

Ñ     Allah says:

ﻲﺘﺄﻴ ﻑﻭﺴﻓ ﻪﻨﻴﺩ ﻥﻋ ﻡﻜﻨﻤ ﺩﺘﺭﻴ ﻥﻤ ﺍﻭﻨﻤﺁ ﻥﻴﺫﻟﺍ ﺎﻬﻴﺃ ﺎﻴ   ﻪﻨﻭﺒﺤﻴﻭ ﻡﻬﺒﺤﻴ ﻡﻭﻘﺒ ﷲﺍ    ﻰﻠﻋ ﺓﺯﻋﺃ ﻥﻴﻨﻤﺅﻤﻟﺍ ﻰﻠﻋ ﺔﻟﺫﺃ
ﻥﻴﺭﻓﺎﻜﻟﺍ   ﷲﺍ لﻴﺒﺴ ﻲﻓ ﻥﻭﺩﻫﺎﺠﻴ   ﻡﺌﻻ ﺔﻤﻭﻟ ﻥﻭﻓﺎﺨﻴ ﻻﻭ

which means: “O you who have believed! Whoever of you should revert from his religion  – Allah will bring forth [in place of them] a people He will love and who will love Him  [who are] humble toward the believers; powerful against the disbelievers; they strive in  the cause of Allah and do not fear the blame of a critic...” [Al-Ma’idah: 54]

Ñ     Allah Has informed us that He loves the pious as well as those who are honorable  and   fair  with  their   families;  he   also   loves   those  who   shoulder   responsibilities  or  positions of authority justly. Additionally, Allah loves those who fight for His sake and are united in this.

Ñ     Sa`d ibn Abi Waqqaas, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that: "The  Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: “Allah loves a slave who is pious, free of all wants and inconspicuous (in performing good deeds).” [Muslim]. Being  free of all wants is a result of being content with what Allah has provided, and such a  person would never ask anything of people, nor would he be seeking high positions; such a person would be far too busy devoting himself to worshipping Allah and focusing on his own shortcomings.


Ñ     `Amr ibn Shu`ayb, may Allah have mercy upon him, on the authority of his father  and grandfather, reported: "The Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam  said: “Allah loves to see the signs of His bounties on his slave.” [At-Tirmithi] This should however be done without exaggeration, showing off, or being stingy if one is in a position where he needs to spend.  

Ñ     Abu Idrees Al-Khawlaani, may Allah have mercy upon him, reported: “I once  entered the Grand Mosque in Damascus where I happened to catch sight of a young man who had bright teeth (i.e., he was always smiling). A number of people had gathered around him. When they differed over anything they would refer it to him and act upon  his advice. I asked who he was and I was told that he was Mu`aath ibn Jabal, may Allah  be pleased with him. The next day, I hastened to the mosque and found that he had arrived there before me and was busy in prayer. I waited until he finished, and then approached him from the front, greeted him with Salaam, and then said to him: ' I swear by Allah that I love you.' So he asked: 'For the sake of Allah?' I replied: 'Yes, for the sake of Allah.' He again asked me: 'Is it for Allah's sake?' I replied: 'Yes, it is for Allah's sake.' Then he took hold of my cloak, drew me to himself, and said: 'Rejoice! I heard the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam saying: “Allah the Exalted says: My love is for those who love one another for My sake, meet one another for My sake, visit one another for My sake and spend in charity for My sake.” [Maalik] 

Ñ     `Aa’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, reported: "The Messenger of Allah,  sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam appointed a man in charge of an army unit who would also  lead them in prayer; he always concluded his recitation with chapter Al-Ikhlaas, (which  means): "Say [O Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam]: 'He is Allah, [the] One.  Allah As-Samad [Allah, the Self-Sufficient]. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And  there is none equal or comparable to Him.''' [Al-Ikhlaas:1-4] Upon the return of the unit to Al-Madeenah, they mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, who said: "Ask him why he does so?'' He was asked and his reply was: 'This  chapter mentions some attributes of Allah, the Gracious, and so I love to recite it.' When the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam heard this, he said to his  people: "Tell him that Allah loves him." [Al-Bukhaari & Muslim] 

Ñ     The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was asked who were the most beloved to  Allah and he answered: “Those who benefit others the most, and the dearest deed (to  Allah) is the happiness that a Muslim brings to the heart of his fellow Muslim.”

Ñ     The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was asked about the most beloved of the  slaves of Allah, to which he sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam answered: “Those who are  best in manners.” [At-Tabaraani]

Ñ     Allah loves those who are easy on others when buying, selling and during disputes.
