2568. Abū Dharr narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "There are three whom Allāh loves and three whom Allāh hates. As for those whom Allāh loves: Then a man who came to a people and asked them by Allāh, and he did not ask them due to any relation between him and them, but they did not give him. So a man stayed behind them and gave him secretly, none knew about what he gave except Allāh and the one he gave. And, a group of people who traveled the night until
when sleep became more beloved to them than all the things that equal it and they lay their heads down, but a man stoop up humbling himself to Me and reciting My Āyāt. And a man who was in a small expedition and met the enemy and they were vanquished, yet he faced them until he was killed or victory was granted to him. And the three whom Allāh hates are, the old man who commits adultery, the arrogant poor man, and the oppressive rich man.” (Hasan)

[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Ĥadīth is Sahīh.
Similar was reported by Shaibān like this from Manšūr. And this is more authentic than the narration of Abū Bakr bin ‘Ayyāsh.

Commentary
The three persons Allāh loves are those who parted company with their own people and performed deeds pleasing to Allāh. Allāh also loves them because they chose not to support their people but rather win His pleasure through their praiseworthy acts.
