Love for the sake of Allah is one of the strongest bonds of faith, and is one of the most important foundations on which Muslim society is based. Love for the sake of Allah is one of the greatest acts of worship and one of the best of righteous deeds. Among the seven whom Allah will shade with His shade on the Day when there will be no shade but His are “two men (people) who love one another for the sake of Allah, meeting and parting on that basis.”
