Who does God love?
That is an important question which believers should always keep in mind, as the answer guides them to a happy life here and in the Hereafter. This thread will try to shed some light on the attributes God loves the most according to The Qur'an and to the sayings of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. The first attribute is generosity: God loves those who are generous, as Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said: "Allah is All-Generous and He loves generosity in sale, purchase and judgment." Being generous towards others is a sign of mercy, and God who is The Most Merciful loves that we deal with each other in kindness, mercy and generosity. |
