حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him; and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him.”

আবূ মূসা আশ্‘আরী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ যে ব্যক্তি আল্লাহর সাক্ষাত ভালবাসে, আল্লাহ্ও তার সাক্ষাত ভালবাসেন। আর যে ব্যক্তি আল্লাহর সাক্ষাত ভালবাসে না, আল্লাহ্ও তার সাক্ষাত ভালবাসেন না। [মুসলিম ৪৮/৬, হাঃ ২৬৮৬]

مجھ سے محمد بن علاء نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے ابواسامہ نے، ان سے یزید بن عبداللہ نے، ان سے ابوبردہ نے، ان سے ابوموسیٰ اشعری رضی اللہ عنہ نے کہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ”جو شخص اللہ سے ملنے کو پسند کرتا ہے اللہ بھی اس سے ملنے کو پسند کرتا ہے اور جو شخص اللہ سے ملنے کو ناپسند کرتا ہے اللہ بھی اس سے ملنے کو ناپسند کرتا ہے۔“

Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Muhammad bin Al 'Ala'] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Usamah] dari [Buraid] dari [Abu Burdah] dari [Abu Musa] dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, beliau bersabda: "barangsiapa yang mencintai berjumpa Allah, Allah mencintai berjumpa kepadanya, sebaliknya siapa yang membenci berjumpa dengan Allah, Allah pun membenci berjumpa dengannya

Ebu Musa'nın nakline göre Resulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem "Her kim Allah'a kavuşmayı severse Allah da ona kavuşmayı sever. Her kim de Allah'a kavuşmayı sevmezse, Allah da onunla buluşmayı istemez" buyurmuştur

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Anyone loves to meet Allah, then Allah loves to meet him; and anyone dislikes to meet Allah, then Allah also dislikes to meet him."

So ‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) asked: "Do you mean the aversion to death, O Messenger of Allah? In fact, all of us dislike death." He answered: "It is not as you think." Then he explained to her that the believer believes in the great reward and countless gifts that Allah prepared for the believers in Paradise, so he loves this.

He doesn't care much about the worldly life and considers it very little, because he will eventually travel to a better life in Paradise. Therefore, he loves to meet Allah, especially at the time of death when he is given the glad tidings of Allah's pleasure and mercy. He loves to meet Allah and looks forward to this meeting, and Allah similarly looks forward to this meeting.

As for the disbeliever (may Allah protect us from his case!), when he is given the bad tidings of the punishment and wrath of Allah, he dislikes to meet Allah, and in turn Allah dislikes to meet him. There is a Hadīth, which states that when the disbeliever is dying and receives the bad tidings of Allah's wrath and anger, his soul disperses inside his body and refuses to exit.

Accordingly, the disbeliever's soul is harshly pulled out of the body and forcibly taken away because it is given the bad tidings of evil destination. Allah, the Almighty,, said: {And if you could but see when the wrongdoers are in the overwhelming pangs of death while the angels extend their hands, [saying]: "Discharge your souls!} [Sūrat al-An‘ām: 93]
