Among the signs is the love expressed for the Prophet and the People of his House, and his Companions – the Emigrants (Muhajirun) and the Helpers (Ansar) alike for his sake. A person with this sign will be found hostile to those who hate them.
Of Al Hasan and Al Hussain, may Allah be pleased with them, the Prophet said, "O Allah, I love them, so please love them."
Of Al Hasan the Prophet said, "O Allah, I love him, so whosoever loves him, love him." And he also said, "Whosoever hates them, hates me."
The Prophet told Ali, "Only a believer will love you, and only a hypocrite will hate you." (Shaykh Darwish added: Hafiz ibn Hajar reported the preceding hadith and said that ibn Taymia stamped himself with hypocrisy because he knew the hadith, quoted it, but went against it thereby it becomes evident that ibn Taymia hated Imam Ali. It is also recorded in Hafiz Habib Ahmad Ghumari’s famous books that ibn Taymia slandered Imam Ali on sixteen occasions).
Of his family, the Prophet said referring to Lady Fatima, may Allah be pleased with her, "She is part of me, whosoever hates her hates me."
The Prophet told Lady Ayesha regarding Osama, Zayd's son, "Love him because I love him".
The Prophet spoke of the Helpers (Ansar) saying, "The sign of certain faith is love for the Ansar, whereas the sign of hypocrisy is hatred of them."
The Prophet said, "Fear Allah, fear Allah. My Companions do not make them targets after me! Whosoever loves them loves them because they love me, and whosoever hates them it is through their hatred of me. Whosoever harms them, harms me. Whosoever does something to hurt me does it is as if it is hurtful to Allah. Whosoever does something that appears to be hurtful to Allah is about to be seized."
The fact is when someone loves another, he loves everything that person loves, and this was indeed the case with the Companions and the Tabien and the Tabi Tabien (the two generations who followed the Companions) who applied their love to things that were permitted and the denied the appetites of their self.
Anas saw the Prophet selecting a piece of pumpkin, and said, "From that day I loved pumpkins."
Of Al Hasan and Al Hussain, may Allah be pleased with them, the Prophet said, "O Allah, I love them, so please love them."
Of Al Hasan the Prophet said, "O Allah, I love him, so whosoever loves him, love him." And he also said, "Whosoever hates them, hates me."
