Blessings for the Servants of Allah

عَنْ أبِي هُرَيْرةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ سَلَّمُ :

إنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى قَالَ : مَنْ عَادَى لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدْ آذَنْنُهُ بِالْحَرْبِ

وَ مَا تَقَرَّبَ إلَيَّ عَبْدِي بِشَيْءٍ أحَبَّ إلَيَّ مِمَّا افْتَرَضْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ

وَ لاَ يَزَالُ عَبْدِي يَتَقَرَّبُ إلَيَّ بِالنَّوَافِلِ حَتَّى اُحِبَّهُ

فَإذَا أَحْبَبْتُهُ كُنْتُ سَمعَهُ الَّذِي يَسْمَعُ بِهِ وَ بَصَرَهُ الَّذِي يُبْصِرُ بِهِ وَ بَدَهُ الَّتِى يَبْطِشُ بِهَا وَ رِجْلَهُ الَّتِى يَمْشِي بِهَا

وَ لَئِنْ سَألَنِي لأُعْطِيَنَّهُ وَ لَئِنْ أسْتَعَاذَنِي لأُعِيْذَنَّهُ

وَ مَا تَرَدَّدْتُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ أنَا فَاعِلُهُ تَرَدُّدي عَنْ نَفْسِ عَبْدي الْمُؤْمِنِ

يَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ وَ أنَا أكْرَهُ مَسَاءَتَهُ

رِوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ

 

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:

Whoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him. My servant draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I have enjoined upon him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me with superogatory works so that I shall love him. When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it. I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about [seizing] the soul of My faithful servant: he hates death and I hate hurting him.
