I Love The Righteous
A conversation between Imam Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad Hanbal (may Allah have mercy on them)
Imam Shafi'i said:
I love the righteous, although I'm not of them
Perhaps I shall receive intercession through them
And I hate he who trades in sins (deals in acts of disobedience)
Although we are both dealing in the same trade.
So Imam Ahmad responded:
You love the righteous and you are of them
And from you shall they receive intercession
And you hate he who trades in sins
May Allah protect us from the evil of such trade
We should love the righteous people and not considered ourselves as one of them.
May Allah make us among the righteous and grant us righteous companions. Aameen.
