were not for that, it would not have been mentioned in the hadith: "If the believer was on the top
of a mountain, Allah would send to him an unbeliever or a hypocrite to harm him." And if it were
not for that, it would not have been mentioned in the hadith: "When Allah loves people or loves a

And if it were not for that, it would not have been mentioned in the hadith: "No two qualities are

down upon us and you patience, end our lifetime and yours with reward and happiness, save us
and you from all misfortunes through His force and strength. Surely He is Hearing, Nigh; and may
Allah bless His Choice from among His creatures, Muhammed the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and his family."[1]

through any of the sentiments of love. The thing that indicates that they were on the right course
is that he, peace be on him, yearningly looked forward to know their news. Khallad b. 'Umayr al‐

peace be on him, and he asked: 'Have you any knowledge of the family of al‐Hasan?"
Khallad said: "News from them came to us, and we did not want to start with it. So we said to him:
'We hope that Allah will make them well.' And he, peace be on
