general that speak of the signs of Allah's love for His slave; what
are the signs of Allah's hatred towards His slave?
Praise be to Allah.
Allah, may He be exalted,loves those who believe, hence He makes faith
dear to them. And He hates those who disbelieve and disobey Him,
unless they repent. If Allah helps a person to believe and makes faith
dear to his heart, and makes the believers dearto him and makes him
dear to them, and he lives and dies following that, then he is one of
those whom Allah loves.
But if Allah makes faith and obedience hateful to a person, and He
makes disobedience dear to his heart, and hemakes those who are
disobedient dear to him and makes him dear to them, and he lives and
dies following that, thenhe is one of those whomAllah hates.
But we cannot be certain that any particular individual is one of
those whom Allahloves, just as we cannot be certain that any
particular individual is one of those whom Allahhates. It is essential
to understand that Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, may hate a
person at one time and love him at another time, according to his
actions.
If a person commits some of the deeds that Allah hates, it cannot be
ruled that he is one of those who Allah hates, for Allah may bestow
His mercy upon him and he may repent before he dies and do good deeds,
and Allah may forgive him; and he may have hidden righteous deeds that
are unknown to people, so Allah may treat him kindly.
What we can be certain about is that Allah hates his disobedient
actions and his commission of that sin.
We will highlight some signs and indications that may signal that
Allah hates His slave, without stating definitively that everyone who
has some of these characteristics isone of those whom Allahhates.
These include the following:
· When Allah causes him to be hated and to have a bad
reputation and be spoken ill of in this world, because that is usually
due to a person's bad conduct and corruption.
Al-Bukhaari (3209) and Muslim (2637) narrated that Abu Hurayrah said:
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "When Allah loves a person, He calls Jibreel and says: 'I love
So and so, so love him.' So Jibreel loves him, then he calls out to
the people of heaven, 'Allah loves So and so, so love him.' So the
people of heaven love him and he finds acceptance on earth. If Allah
hates a person, He calls Jibreel and says: 'I hate So and so, so hate
him.' So Jibreel hates him, then he calls out to the people of heaven:
'Allah hates So and so, so hate him.' So they hate him and he is hated
on earth."
Al-Bukhaari (1367) and Muslim (949) narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may
Allah be pleased with him) said: A funeral passed by and they spoke
well of (the deceased). The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him) said: "It has become certain." Another funeral passed by and
they spoke badly of (the deceased). The Prophet (blessings and peace
of Allah be upon him) said: "It has become certain." 'Umar ibn
al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: What has become
certain? He said:"For the one of whom you spoke well, Paradisehas
become certain, and for the one of whom youspoke badly, Hell has
become certain. You are the witnesses of Allah onearth."
· He loves that which Allah, may He be exalted,hates, and he
hates that which Allah loves
Allah, may He be exalted,said of the people of faith whom He loves
(interpretation of the meaning):
"but Allah has endeared the Faith to you and has beautified it in your
hearts, and has made disbelief, wickedness and disobedience (to Allah
and His Messenger SAW) hateful to you. These! They are the rightly
guided ones"
[al-Hujuraat 49:7].
· He gets carried away in sin, transgression and misguidance,
moving from one sin to another, and he is not enabled to repent, and
he dies in that state.
· He persists in keeping company with people of sin and avoids
people of faith.
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "A man will follow the way of his close friend, so let one of
you look at who he takes as a close friend." Narrated by Abu Dawood,
4833; classed ashasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood etc.
· He does not adhere to the duties enjoined by Allah and the
pillars of Islam. So you only see him neglecting the prayer, too lazy
to offer it, and ignoring the rights of Allah and the rights of His
slaves, not caring about the consequences of that in this world and
the Hereafter.
· He hates advice andresents the one who offers it; if he is
instructed to do something good or is told not to do somethingbad, he
takes pride in his sin. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation
of the meaning): "And when it is said to him, 'Fear Allah', he is led
by arrogance to (more) crime. So enough for him is Hell, and worst
indeed is that place to rest" [al-Baqarah 2:206].
· He is hostile towards the people of faith, and he takes the
people of disobedience as friends; he loves and hates for something
other than the sake of Allah, and is based on that which is not
pleasing to Allah. If he loves it is not for the sake of Allah and if
he hates it is not for the sake of Allah.
· He hates that whichAllah loves and he loves that which Allah hates.
· He has the characteristics that Allah dislikes, such as
lying, deceiving, betraying, backbiting, malicious gossip and so on,
characteristics that Allah hates and He hates thosewho have those
characteristics. If a person acquires any characteristic that Allah
hates, to such an extent that it becomes second nature to him and part
of his character, this is something that exposes him to the wrath and
hatred of Allah, for Allah when Allah hates a characteristic, He hates
for people to adopt it .
· He is one of those who show off and seek to enhance their
reputation, one of those who boast, are proud and arrogant, and feel
themselves to be above submitting humbly in servitude to Allah.
· His attachment to his religion is weak, and he is more
attached to his whims and desires; he only strives to fulfill his
desires and evil inclinations, until he becomes like one who has taken
his whims anddesires as his god.
· He strives hard for worldly gain, but he is heedless about
matters of the Hereafter.
Allah, may He be exalted,says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Whoever wishes for thequick-passing (transitoryenjoyment of this
world), We readily grant him what We will for whom We like. Then,
afterwards, We have appointed for him Hell, he will burn therein
disgraced and rejected, (far away from Allah's Mercy)"
[al-Isra' 17:18].
al-Bukhaari (6435) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased
with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah
be upon him) said: "Wretched is the slave ofthe dinar and dirham and
fine clothing, if he isgiven he is pleased and if he is not given he
is displeased."
· He gives in to majorsins that incur the wrath and anger of
Allah, such as zina, consuming riba, slandering chaste women and the
like, then he is not enabled torepent.
· He is foul mouthed, evil, a slanderer and evildoer; people
avoid him because of his rudeness, bad ways, wrongdoing and
transgression of the limits set by Allah.
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "The worst of people in status before Allaah on the Day of
Resurrection will be those whom the people leave alone for fear of
their evil."
Narrated by al-Bukhaari,6032; Muslim, 2591.
· He imitates the disbelievers and evildoers, and hates to
resemble the people of faith.
· He commits shirk and falls into it, then he is not enabled to
repent from it. Shirk is the worst characteristic a person may have
and it exposes him to the wrath and anger of Allah.
To sum up, if a person has the characteristic of obedience to Allah
and to His Messenger, then he may be one of those whom Allah loves; if
a person persists in disobedience to Allah and His Messenger, then he
deserves to incur the hatred and wrath of Allah.
By the same token, it cannot be said of any particular individual
thatAllah loves this person orthat Allah hates this person.
Al-Bukhaari (3332) and Muslim (2643) narrated from Ibn Mas'ood (may
Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and
peace of Allah be upon him) said: "A man may do the deeds of the
people of Hell until thereis nothing between him and it but a cubit,
then the decree overtakes him and he does a deed of the people of
Paradise, and thus enters Paradise. And a man may do the deeds of the
people of Paradise until there is nothing between him and it but a
cubit, then the decree overtakes him and he does a deed of the people
of Hell andthus enters Hell."And Allah knows best.
