Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: We ask you to clarify the meaning of this hadith, the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): “A person loves a people, and he has not yet joined them.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2387Sahih (Darussalam) Will he be with them in the same rank? And what is the implication of this love?
Answer:
He will be with them, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us, in Paradise. The people of Paradise differ in their ranks and levels, and this is known only to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). The important thing is that he will be with the people of Paradise and with them in entering Paradise. Love for the sake of Allah the Exalted is a great matter; hatred for the sake of Allah is a great matter; loyalty and disavowal are great matters. Yes.
