Zujajat al-Masabih 4797Volume 4

English

Abdur-Rahman ibn Abi Qarad (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: The Prophet (ﷺ) performed ablution one day, and his companions began wiping with his ablution water. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to them: “What prompts you to this?” They said: “Love of Allah and His Messenger.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever is pleased 1 to love Allah and His Messenger or for Allah and His Messenger to love him, let him be truthful when speaking, fulfill trusts when entrusted, and be good to his neighbor.”

[Narrated by Al-Bayhaqi in Shu’ab Al-Iman]

Whoever is pleased to love Allah…
