Question:
Is it a means of strengthening love to advise him, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) advised Mu'adh?
Answer:
If he informs him of what is obligatory, and if he advises him, that is an increase in good. So if he informs him of love, that is sufficient. But if he advises him and says, "Fear Allah," or "I advise you to fear Allah," or "I advise you to maintain family ties," or "I advise you to seek knowledge," that is an increase in good.
