إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَعْلَمَ أَنَّ فِيكَ خَيْراً فَانْظُرْ إِلَى قَلْبِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ يُحِبُّ أَهْلَ طَاعَةِ اللَّهِ وَ يُبْغِضُ أَهْلَ مَعْصِيَتِهِ فَفِيكَ خَيْرٌ وَ اللَّهُ يُحِبُّكَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ يُبْغِضُ أَهْلَ طَاعَةِ اللَّهِ وَ يُحِبُّ أَهْلَ مَعْصِيَتِهِ فَلَيْسَ فِيكَ خَيْرٌ وَ اللَّهُ يُبْغِضُكَ وَ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ibn Al Arzamy, from his father, from Jabir Al Ju’fy, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> having said: ‘Whenever you intend to know that there is goodness in you, so look at your heart. So if it loves the people obedient to Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> and hates the people disobedient to Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>, so there is goodness in you and Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Loves you. And if it was so that it hates the people obedient to Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> and loves the people disobedient to Him<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>, so there is no goodnes in you and Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Hates you. And the person would be with the one who he loves’.
