The reciter: Mas'ud narrated to us, saying: Yahya narrated to us from Shu'bah from Qatadah from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). And Husayn al-Mu'allim said: Qatadah narrated to us from Anas from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: Sahih al-Bukhari 13.
The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This indicates that a person's love for his brother of what he loves for himself is part of faith, and that the absence of this love results in the absence of faith. But is it the absence of the foundation of faith, or of its perfection?
Yes, the second one: it is the absence of its perfection, not of its foundation.
None of you will have faith till he wishes for his (Muslim) brother what he likes for himself.
