Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three things which are true: Allah Almighty has not made the one who has a share in Islam like the one who has no share in Islam; when a servant loves Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty does not hand him over to anyone else; and when a man loves a people, he will be gathered with them."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except Muhammad bin Maymun al-Khayyat, and he has been declared trustworthy.
