ہم کو سارے سیّدوں سے پیار ہے

اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ دو جہاں میں اپنا بیڑا پار ہے

The persuasion of teaching our children to love and respect the Ahl-e-Bayt has been mentioned in blessed Hadees: The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: ‘اَدِّبُوْا اَوْلَادَکُمْ عَلٰی ثَلاثِ خِصَالٍ’ i.e. Teach three things to your children:        ‘حُبِّ نَبِیِّکُمْ’ devotion to their Blessed Nabi, وَحُبِّ اَہْلِ بَیْتِہٖ and devotion to his Ahl-e-Bayt, وَقِرَاءَ ۃِ الْقُرْاٰنِ and recitation of the Holy Quran.

(As-Sawaiq-ul-Muharriqah, pp. 172)

From the abovementioned blessed Hadees it has been learnt that the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم had great devotion to his blessed Ahl-e-Bayt. He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم also taught the blessed companions, who already had this devotion to the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and his Ahl-e-Bayt, to develop devotion to him and his Ahl-e-Bayt in the hearts of their future generations, so that they can also be amongst those who have achieved salvation. At another place, the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم made the devotion to his blessed Ahl-e-Bayt a condition for having complete faith.

The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: No one can become a perfect believer until I become more beloved to him than his own life, and my offspring become more beloved to him than his own life, and my family becomes more beloved to him than his own family, and I become more beloved to him than his own self. (Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 2, pp. 189, Hadees 1505)
