21. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever possesses the following three qualities will taste the sweetness of faith: 1. The one to whom Allāh بجل and His Messenger Muhammad ﷺ become dearer than anything else. 2. Who loves a person and he loves him only for Allāh's sake. 3. Who hates to revert to disbelief (atheism) after Allāh بجل has brought him out (saved him) from it, as he hates to be thrown in fire."

Arabic text

21 - حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " ثَلاَثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ وَجَدَ حَلاَوَةَ الإِيمَانِ: مَنْ كَانَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِمَّا سِوَاهُمَا، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ عَبْدًا لاَ يُحِبُّهُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَمَنْ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَعُودَ فِي الكُفْرِ، بَعْدَ إِذْ أَنْقَذَهُ اللَّهُ، مِنْهُ كَمَا يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُلْقَى فِي النَّارِ "
