It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: None of you can be a believer until Allah and His Messenger are more beloved to him than anyone else, and a person dislikes returning to disbelief after Allah has saved him from it just as he dislikes being thrown into the fire. And none of you can be a believer until I become more beloved to him than his father, his children, and all people.
