Love for the Sake of Allah

Battle of Badr:

Abu Jahal had servants while fighting; he had a big body; was one of the biggest people in the battle . Two boys asked Abdur Rahman al Auff, where's Abu Jahal.

Why are you asking about him?

Because he used to hurt Rasoolullah sallallahu alayhissalaam.

Go away.

As soon as they were shown Abu Jahal, both of them ran/flew to Abu Jahal. One of them struck 1 leg and the other one struck the 2nd leg.

Now Abdullah ibn Masood (R.A.) saw Abu Jahal. With his bad sword, he jumped on his chest, stood up on his chest. He was a slave in Makkah. Abu jahal was exhausted in pain but couldn't move.

Abu Jahal, still arrogant and without iman said, you are standing on a very honored place (i.e. my chest; the chest of the leader of kuffar of Makkah), oh you 'small' sheppard. Abdullah ibn Masood (R.A.) used his bad knife to cut Abu Jahal's ear, (because Abu Jahal cut his ear while he dared to do tawaf around the Kaabah) but it wasn't cutting smoothly Jahal told him that take my sword and cut my ear, you are hurting me! lol. Then he took his sword and killed him.

ibn Masood severed the head of Abu Jahal and carried to Hujur alayhissalam; he was tired on the way and had to rest.

Hujur alayhissalaam said upon seeing the head of the head of kuffar, Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, this is the Pharoa of this ummah. 

Prophet Muhammad (S.A.S.) made dua in the past for these two Umars (Jahal and Al Khattab) but only Al Khattab (R.A.) got hidaya and Jahal went to hell.

Topic shift

Love somebody for the sake of Allah, not for the money he's giving you.

Part of Iman is to love for sake of Allah. 

Hadith: 

Hujur alayhissalaam said (something like this), if two men love each other for the sake of Allah, and amongst them, the one who's loving the other more, Allah loves him/her more. Allah's judging you the way you carry out your action. 

Uddh > love. Mawaddatan wa rahmah.

For those who believe in Allah and follow with righteous good deeds, they will get Uddh from Allah.

Uddh = Love + kindness.

Love: someone may love you today, but not tomorrow, they'll stop.

Love + Kindness from Allah. This is between you and your wife.

Mawaddah is more than love. 

When Allah loves someone, He calls Jibril a.s. that oh Jibril, I love so and so, love him. Jibril alayhissalaam will call other angels and other creation of Allah that Allah and Jibril love so and so, so love him/her.

Hadith:

A man died and janaaza passed by Rasoolullah sallallahu slayhissalaam and He said that this is someone who's comfortable or people will be comfortable from him. Mu'min will be comfortable when he dies, but everyone around a kaafir will be comfortable upon his death.

Lesson: start loving other Muslims for the sake of Allah. They are part of our own big happy family, our ummah.
