It is reported on the authority of Anas that Allah’s Messenger (Peace Be upon Him) said: “There are three qualities for which anyone who is characterized by them will experience the sweetness of faith: He to whom Allah and His Messenger are dearer than all else; he who loves a human being for Allah’s sake alone; and he who has as great an abhorrence of returning to unbelief after Allah has rescued him from it as he has of being cast into hell.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

Therefore whatever I decide for anyone which by right belongs to his brother he must not take, for I am granting him only a portion of hell.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)
