Narrated Abu Hurairah r.a.: The prophet s.a.w. said, “If Allah loves a person, He calls Jibril (Gabriel) saying: Allah loves so and so; O Jibril love him.’ Jibril would love him, and then Jibril would make an announcement among the residents of the heavens, ‘Allah loves so-and-so, therefore, you should love him also.’ So, all the residents of the heavens would love him and then he is granted the pleasure of the people of the earth.”
