Verily, Allah loves the servant who is pious, free of wants, and inconspicuous

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out that Allah Almighty loves some of His servants,

including the pious: those who fulfill Allah's commands and avoid His prohibitions.

And He loves those free from wants: those who dispense with people and only resort to Allah Almighty and turn to none but Him.

And He loves the inconspicuous: those who are modest and worship their Lord and only concern themselves with what benefits them, and they do not care about being recognized or praised by others.

Lessons from the hadith

• The Hadīth highlights some qualities that entail Allah’s love for His servants, namely fear of Allah, humility, and contentment with what is predestined and given by Allah.
