Hazrat Shaikh Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) once mentioned the following:
The mubaarak hadeeth mentions “المرء مع من أحب” – a person will be with those whom he loves (on the Day of Qiyaamah).
From this hadeeth, there is one point which I deduce. Generally, it is not possible for one person to engage in every effort of Deen, such as teaching Saheeh Bukhaari, while also engaging in the effort of Da’wat and Tableegh and also engaging in mujaahadah, etc.
The point which I deduce from this hadeeth is that if one loves the seniors who are engaged in the various efforts of Deen, and one truly loves each and every one of them, then insha-Allah, on the Day of Qiyaamah, he will be with all of them (i.e. he will be counted among all of them who were engaged in all the efforts of Deen on account of his love for them and supporting their effort).
