The Excellences of Ahl al-Bayt
لَا یُؤْمِنُ عَبْدٌ حَتّٰی اَکُوْنَ اَحَبَّ اِلَیْہِ مِنْ نَفْسِہٖ
“No servant believes until I am more beloved to him than his own self,
وَذَاتِیْ اَحَبَّ اِلَیْہِ مِنْ ذَاتِہِ
"and my being is more beloved to him than his own being,”
وَتَکُوْنَ عِتْـرَتِیْ اَحَبَّ اِلَیْہِ مِنْ عِتْـرَتِہِ
“and my progeny are more beloved to him than his own offspring,”
وَاَہْلِیْ اَحَبَّ اِلَیْہِ مِنْ اَہْلِہِ
“and my family are more beloved to him than his own family.”[1]
Love for Ahl al-Bayt is a consequence of love for the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم
It is narrated from Sayyidunā ꜤAbdullāh b. ꜤAbbās رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا that the beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:
اَحِبُّوااللّٰہَ لِمَا یَغْذُوْکُمْ مِنْ نِعَمِہِ
"Love Allah because He nourishes you with His blessings,”
واَحِبُّوْنِیْ بِحُبِّ اللّٰہِ
"and love me for the sake of Allah's love,”
وَاَحِبُّوْااَہْلَ بَیْتِیْ لِحُبِّیْ
"and love my Ahl al-Bayt for my sake."[2]
