• It is obligatory to love the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and give precedence to his love over the love for all other created beings.
• A sign of complete love is to support the Prophet's Sunnah and sacrifice one's life and wealth for this purpose.
• Love for the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) entails obeying his commands, believing what he said, avoiding what he prohibited and forbade, and following him and abandoning religious innovations.
• The Prophet's right is greater and more emphatic than all other people, for he was a reason for guiding us, saving us from Hellfire, and making us win Paradise.
