It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Love (from Allah and fame) descends from the sky. Thus, when Allah Almighty loves a servant, He says (to Hazrat Jibreel, peace be upon him): "I love such-and-such person, so you also love him." Then this love is placed in the hearts of the people of the earth.
