When Allah loves someone,
— He is loved by everyone, from earth to heaven.
Allah loves the repentant,
— Seeking His pardon often.
He loves those who purify themselves,
— From filth, sin, and transgression.
Allah loves every pious, God-fearing person,
— And those who act righteously with excellence.
He loves those who rely upon Him with complete dependence,
— And those who are just and fair in every action.
Allah loves the steadfast,
— Who in distress acts with patience.
And those who for His cause line up,
— Hand in gloves, as combatants.
As a united front,
— As if brass molten, after it is hardened.
Allah loves a pious, rich person,
— Who does not show off nor look down upon anyone (Muslim).
He loves the virtuous with little provisions,
— Who begs not despite many children.” (Muslim and Ahmed)
Allah is most generous,
— He loves generosity in all transactions.
If people love each other for His gratification,
— Allah loves them too in a greater proportion.
“The best deeds to Allah are the ones
— Which are few but consistent.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
The thing Allah loves most, without question,
— Is offering prayers at their appointed times with full submission (hadith- Bukhari).
The one with the best mannerism and humble disposition,
— Will be a highly loved one on the day of resurrection.
May Allah include us in His loved ones,
— With all the qualities above mentioned.
