When Allah Loves a Servant

The Prophet (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said, "When Allah Most
High
loves a servant, He calls upon Jibra'il: 'I indeed love so and so,
therefore
love him.' Thus Jibra'il loves him, and calls out to the Folk
of the
Sky: 'Allah indeed loves so and so, therefore love him.' Thus, the
Folk of the
Sky love him, and acceptance is established for him on earth."

(Imam al-Nawawi, Riyad al-Salihin, Hadith # 387)
