Love one another for Allah’s sake

What It Means: Reading in Context

In this hadith qudsi, the Prophet reports what Allah will say on the Day of Resurrection. The question quoted here is followed by a promise of shade for those described. “My” refers to Allah; the question is not spoken by the narrator or the reader. This entry comes from Sahih Muslim 2566. The displayed text is an excerpt, not the complete narration. Follow the source link to read the narrator, full wording and in-book reference together. A hadith number identifies the source used here; numbering systems can differ between editions. Being able to inspect a source is important when a short statement is shared outside its original setting. The accompanying reflection is an editorial prompt for everyday conduct. It is not part of the hadith and does not replace explanation from qualified scholarship. Avoid extending a short reminder into a religious ruling that the entry itself does not establish.
