If there are any Ismaili Muslims on this forum, could they please answer this? I've been reading the Qur'an for 20 years, and I certainly can't find it. What am I missing?

How do Ismaili Muslims find love for all, hatred for none in the Qur'an?
- Thread starter stevecanuck
- Start date
The motto 'Love for All, Hatred for None' is used by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. If you want to know their reasoning, the best place to look might be the writings of either their founder or one of his successors.

To be honest, I would be weary of this. For not everything is love. God isn't just love. It is almost as if they are trying to promote it like the Christians do "God is Love" bit. When we know very well, God has a vengeful and wrath side to him. Afterall, he created the hellfire. In Islam, he will seek justice.
Be careful of innovative matters into the religion.
The Prophet pbuh told us that: “Every innovation is going astray, and every going astray will be in the Fire.” Narrated by Muslim (867) and an-Nasaa’i (1578)

Why do you say that?
In Islam, we are to be neutral. We are to love what Allah loves and hate what Allah hates.

Sufism is about being love, opening up our heart to everyone. To not hold hate, anger or any attachments or judgment of others or self.
If God want to hate people ( something I dont believe God does) that is up to God.

Allah wants the best for all his Creation. But remember, he has had his day of punishments given to those who have disobeyed him. It's in the Quran and ahadith.
It's your right to believe in your belief, but if Allah says what makes him angry who are we to tell him he shouldn't?
just common sense.
Sounds more like the motto of Ahmadiyya Muslims to me, and my answer would be by a heap of post hoc rationalisation under the alleged stamp of revelation.
In my opinion.

So very unlike any other Abrahamic religion, or indeed most humanistic creeds!

Sounds like something for @parsurry.

Do you believe your religion to be exactly the same as it was under the leadership of The Prophet?
Then why did you say you deserve Hell if you wouldn't love people unconditionally?

I don't think it necessarily is, but maybe I asked the wrong person.
Hopefully you're not too judgemental of those who aren't like you.
If they (or at least some of them) turn out to be more righteous in God's view than you, you may be at "their" mercy.
Whatever the case: Peace be with you and Allah knows best!

For someone who doesn't know about Islam yes you would think since you don't know the detail as to why I even said it.

Right, thanks for that. Actually the Ismailis are equally peaceful, so I do have the same question for them.
