Under His Shade


Love for the sake of Allah is one of the most beautiful and strongest bonds of faith, and probably one of the most essential fundamentals on which Muslim community is based. It is the central point by means of which bonds of friendship and harmony among people are attained, so that they love one another, visit one another and are sincere towards one another. Through it people find the sweetness of faith in their interactions, companionship and friendship.


When people love each other for the sake of Allah swt then He swt gives them the sweetness of iman as mentioned in the ahadith books of both Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim (Rahimahumulla), narrated by Sayyiduna Anas Radhiallahu Anhu that the Prophet Sallalahu Alayhe Wasallam said ,


" whoever  possesses the following three qualities will have the sweetness (delight) of faith: The one to whom Allah and his Apostle becomes dearer than anything else ,who loves a person and he loves him only for Allah's sake and who hates to revert to atheism(disbelief) after Allah has saved him from it, as he hates to be thrown into the fire ."

Please understand this .Love each other for the sake of Allah swt. Do not hate each other. The Prophet Sallalahu Alayhe Wasallam said that Allah swt will say on the Day of Judgement,

" Where are those people who used to love for my Sake .Today, I will share them in my shelter, when there is no shade except My Shade.”(Sahih Muslim).

Where are those people? Stand up! Those who used to love each other for my Sake. Then a group of people will stand up .Then Allah swt will say ," O You, today I am going to give you the shade of my Throne when there is no shade but My Shade. Go in my Shade. "
