The Meaning of the Hadith: A Person Is with Whom He Loves

Question:
He says: I bear witness to Allah the Exalted regarding my love for you for the sake of Allah, and my love for every righteous servant on the face of this earth. However, I do not have much righteous work. So, will my love for the righteous be a cause for me to enter Paradise with them, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ?

Answer:
Yes, loving the people of good is a sign of goodness, and it will carry you to do good. So this is a sign of goodness, and a sign of… a sign of earnestness in seeking good; because you did not love them except because you love their deeds and what they are upon, so you do as they do. And even if you do not catch up with them, you will have a reward and you will be with them on the Day of Resurrection. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about a man who loves a people but has not caught up with them. He said: on the Day of Resurrection. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
