The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, the brotherhood of Islam is better than all love. That is, if you, for example, loved a person with a very high degree of love that reached the level of intimate friendship, the brotherhood of faith would be better than that. This is because the former may carry something other than the love of faith, but the brotherhood in Islam is better, and the affection of Islam is better and more pious. Did we take three? Yes.
