The Sunnah
The Prophet ﷺ reported that a man set out to visit a brother in another town. Allah appointed an angel to meet him who asked why he came. He said, "To visit a brother whom I love for Allah’s sake." The angel said, "I am a messenger to you that Allah loves you as you loved him for His sake."
