When Allaah (Azza wa Jal) Loves a slave...

Abu Hurairah (radhiAllaahu 'anhu) reported: The Prophet (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, 

"When Allah loves a slave, He calls out Jibril and says: 'I love so-and-so; so love him'. Then Jibril loves him. After that he (Jibril) announces to the inhabitants of heavens that Allah loves so-and-so; so love him; and the inhabitants of the heavens (the angels) also love him and then make people on earth love him".
