Love for the sake of Allah

Question

haven't any question, but I want to say to you : ana uhebbuka fe allah( I love for the sake of Allah )wa asaalu Allaha an yuwaffequka fe al dunya wa al akherah( I pray that Allah may grant you success in this life and the life after).

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

May Allah reward you, dear brother, for practicing the sunnah, as it has been related by Al-Miqdaam bin Madi Karib that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "If any of you loves his brother then he should inform him" (Tirmidhi, hadith Hasan Sahih) Also, Anas ibn Maalik related: "I was sitting with the Prophet when a man came passing by, and he said, Oh Prophet of Allah, indeed I love this man (in a brotherly way); so he (the Prophet ) said, Have you informed him of this?; so the man said, No.; so the Prophet said, Get up and go tell him.; so he got up and went to him and said, Oh so-and-so, by Allah, indeed I love you for the sake of Allah; so he said, May the One for whom you have loved me, love you (in return)." (related by Imam Ahmad and Abu Daawood and it is hadith sahih.)

So I say to you: ahabbak allah ullaadhi ahbabtani feeh (May the One for whom you have loved me, love you, in return.)
