بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
I pray that you are well.
The sign that you love someone for Allah is when you are able to hate that same person when he/she disobeys Allah. And when he/she repents, you are able to love him/her again.
When you love Allah then you like what He likes and you hate what He hates. If you love Allah you follow the teachings of His beloved, Allah bless him and grant him peace.
"Say: 'If you love Allah, follow me, and Allah will love you, and forgive you your sins; God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.'" Qur'an AleImran 3:31
Your love for Allah and His Messenger, Allah bless him and grant him peace, should be more than anything else. "Say: 'If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your clan, your possessions that you have gained, commerce you fear may slacken, dwellings you love -- if these are dearer to you than God and His Messenger, and to struggle in His way, then wait till God brings His command; God guides not the people of the ungodly.'" Qur'an at-Tawba 9:24
Obeying Allah's commands is the fruit of love of Allah.
"O believers, whosoever of you turns from his religion, God will assuredly bring a people He loves, and who love Him, humble towards the believers, disdainful towards the unbelievers, men who struggle in the path of God, not fearing the reproach of any reproacher. That is God's bounty; He gives it unto whom He will; and God is All-embracing, All-knowing." Qur'an Al-Ma'idah 5:54
May Allah loves us and make those who love Him love us and grant us righteous deeds so He loves us. Ameen. Please don't forget me in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.
Wassalaam
