               “None will have the sweetness (delight) of Faith till he
               loves a person and loves him only for Allah’s sake…”
               (Sahih al-Bukhari)
               “The one with perfected faith loves the one he loves not
               because he has an interest but only for Allah’s sake. This is
               true faith.” (at-Tabarani)
               “If an individual loves someone for Allah and tells him
               that he loves him for Allah, both of them enter Paradise.
               The degree of the one who loves is greater.” (al-Bazzar)
               “Among the servants of Allah there are those who are nei-
               ther prophets nor martyrs whose position in relation to
               Allah will be an object of desire by the prophets and mar-
               tyrs on the Day of Resurrection.” The people said,
               “Messenger of Allah, tell us who they are,” and he said,

               sake and were giving gifts to one another without being
               related or having (common) property. I swear by Allah
               that their faces will be light and that they will be placed
               upon light, neither fearing when men fear nor grieving
               when men grieve.” (Ahmad)
               “You will not enter Paradise till you believe and you will
               not believe till you love one another.” (Sahih Muslim)
               “Whoever helps for Allah, avoids help for Allah, loves for
               Allah, marries for Allah and helps those who marry for
               Allah, then his faith attains perfection.” (al-Tirmidhi)
               “Always befriend believers, offer your food to believers
               who fear Allah.” (Ibn Hibban)
               “A man is with whom he loves (or will be caused to be with
