Hadith 1
((مَنْ عَادَى لِي وَلِيّاً فَقَدْ آذَنْتُهُ بِالحَرْبِ، وَمَا تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ عَبْدِي بِشَيْءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا افْتَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ، وَمَا يَزَالُ عَبْدِي يَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَيَّ بِالنَّوَافِلِ حَتَّى أُحِبَّهُ، فَإِذَا أَحْبَبْتُهُ: كُنْتُ سَمْعَهُ الَّذِي يَسْمَعُ بِهِ، وَبَصَرَهُ الَّذِي يُبْصِرُ بِهِ، وَيَدَهُ الَّتِي يَبْطِشُ بِهَا، وَرِجْلَهُ الَّتِي يَمْشِي بِهَا، وَإِنْ سَأَلَنِي لَأُعْطِيَنَّهُ، وَلَئِنِ اسْتَعَاذَنِي لَأُعِيذَنَّهُ))
“Whoever bears enmity against my saintly servant, I declare war on him. My servant cannot come closer to me
with anything more dear than the fardh I have ordained upon him. My servant continues to draw nearer to Me
with the nawâfil until I love him. When I love my servant, I become (as if I am) his hearing ear, seeing
eye, grabbing hand and walking foot. If such a servant asks for anything, I will give by all means. I
protect him when he takes refuge with me.”
(Bukhârî, Riqâq, 38)

((إِنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ لَأُنَاساً مَا هُمْ بِأَنْبِيَاءَ وَلَا شُهَدَاءَ، يَغْبِطُهُمُ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، بِمَكَانِهِمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى)) قَالُوا: مَنْ هُمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَعَلَّنَا نُحِبُّهُمْ؟ قَالَ: ((هُمْ قَوْمٌ تَحَابُّوا بِرُوحِ اللَّهِ عَلَى غَيْرِ أَرْحَامٍ بَيْنَهُمْ، وَلَا أَمْوَالٍ يَتَعَاطَوْنَهَا، فَوَاللَّهِ إِنَّ وُجُوهَهُمْ لَنُورٌ، وَإِنَّهُمْ عَلَى نُورٍ، لَا يَخَافُونَ إِذَا خَافَ النَّاسُ، وَلَا يَحْزَنُونَ إِذَا حَزِنَ النَّاسُ))، وَقَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: {أَلَا إِنَّ أَوْلِيَاءَ اللَّهِ لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ} [يونس: 62]
Among Allah’s servants, those are the people who are neither messengers nor martyrs, but on the Day of
Judgement the Messengers and Martyrs will deem fortunate because of their status before Allah.
Sahabah kiraam asked: “Who are they and what good deeds they have done? Let us know, O Messenger of
Allah, so we can show them affection and closeness.”
The Messenger of Allah replied: “These are such people that, in spite of not having any ties of family,
trade or business, they love each other only for the sake of Allah. I swear by Allah that their faces
are luminous and they are upon radiant pulpits. They have no fear at a time when people are in fear,
they feel no grief at a time when people feel grief.” And he then read the following verses from the
Qur’ân:
“Behold! Verily on the friends of Allah there is no fear, nor shall they grieve; Those who believe and
(constantly) guard against evil; For them are glad tidings, in the life of the present and in the
Hereafter; no change can there be in the words of Allah. This is indeed the supreme felicity.”

- O Allah! I ask for your forgiveness by virtue of Muhammad -sallallahu alayhi wa sallam-

Adam replied:
- O Lord! When you created me and breathed into me from Your soul I raised my head and saw on the pillars of the throne the words ‘Lâ ilâha illallah Muhammadun Rasûlullah.’ I knew that you would only join that is the most beautiful of creation to your own name.
After this Allah Almighty said
- You have spoken the truth O Adam! He is the most beloved of my creation to me. Pray to Me for his sake. (And since you have) I forgive you. Were it not for Muhammad -sallallahu alayhi wa sallam- I would not have created you.”
