Prophet Muhammed (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to the sahaba (his companions) to listen carefully, “There will be people on the Day of Judgement whose rank, even the Ambiya (Prophets) and Shuhada (martyrs) will not even have.” At this the companions were quiet but a bedouin man, made an ishara with his hand and asked, “Oh, Prophet of Allah, can you describe them to us so that we may know them?” At this Prophet Muhammed(may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) got very happy and described them, “They are those Muslims who love each other for the sake of Allah, despite being from different cities, different tribes, different clans and different nations. And because of their love for one another, Allah will grant them pulpits of light, clothing of light and emanating light, and the Ambiya (Prophets) and Shuhada (martyrs) will envy them. They are the Awliya (friends) of Allah.”
(Musnad of Imam Ahmad, Mustadrak of Hakim, Sahih)
