لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَحَبَّ رَجُلًا لِلَّهِ لَأَثَابَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى حُبِّهِ إِيَّاهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ الْمَحْبُوبُ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَبْغَضَ رَجُلًا لِلَّهِ لَأَثَابَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى بُغْضِهِ إِيَّاهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ الْمُبْغَضُ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ .

From him, from Abu Ali Al Wasity, from Al Husayn Bin Aban, from the one who mentioned, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘If a man were to love a man for the Sake of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would Reward him upon his love for him, and even if it was so that the beloved was from the people of the Fire in the Knowledge of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>; and if a man were to hate a man for the Sake of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would Reward him upon his hatred for him, and even if it was so that the hated one was from the people of the Paradise in the Knowledge of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>’.
