CREATURES BE FRIEND WHOM ALLAH ENDEARS

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رضي الله عنه narrated that Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, 'When Allah loves a person. He calls Jibril عليه السلام and says, 'I love so and so. Hence, you too must love him.' He said further, Jibril عليه السلام begins to love him and announces in the heaven, saying, 'Allah loves so and so. Hence, you too must love him. The dwellers of heaven then begin to love him. Thereafter, love (and approval) for him is places in the earth. (So, all mankind and jinn begin to love him)." "When Allah does not like a person. He calls Jibril عليه السلام and says, 'I do not like so and so. Hence, you too must dislike him.' Accordingly, Jibril عليه السلام begins not to like him and announces to the dwellers of heaven, 'Surely, Allah does not like so-and-so. Hence, you should not like him too." He said further, "They begin not to like him. Thereafter, dislike for him is placed in the earth." [1]
