It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "O Salman! Do not hate me, lest you abandon your religion." I said: How could I hate you when it is through you that Allah has guided me? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not hate the Arabs, lest you come to hate me."
