3862. 'Abdullāh bin Mughaffal narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "(Fear) Allāh! (Fear) Allāh regarding my Companions! Do not make them objects of insults after me. Whoever loves them, it is
out of love of me that he loves them. And whoever hates them, it is out of hatred for me that he hates them. And whoever harms them, he has harmed me, and whoever harms me, he has offended Allāh, and whoever offends Allāh, [then] he shall soon be punished.” (Da’if)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb, we do not know of it except through this route.

Commentary
When someone loves a person, it is natural to have good and pleasant feelings about him and his associates and companions. If a person has a grudge against the companions of the beloved, it means in fact, he has a grudge against him and his love is only hypocrisy. On this analogy, it can be said that he who hates the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ is also against him, and consequently against Allāh ﷻ. Allāh ﷻ will never favor such a person.
