Having true and genuine love for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is a divine command and cultivating this love to the point that he (ﷺ) becomes more beloved to one than one’s very self was described by the Prophet (ﷺ) as a hallmark of true faith.
In emulation of the great Imam al-Bukhārī , who detailed the love of the Messenger (ﷺ) in the Book of Faith in his Ṣaḥīḥ, the author and leading hadith authority of the Levant, Shaykh Nūr al-Dīn ʿItr acquaints the reader with the true meaning of sincere and earnest love for Prophet (ﷺ) in light of the Qur’an and the prophetic speech on this most pertinent of topics. Moreover, Shaykh Nūr al-Dīn goes to enumerate anecdotal evidence of the tremendous heights reached in loving him (ﷺ), exhibited and expressed by his family and Companions and thus provides the reader a distinct formula to gain, increase and perfect one’s love for the Mercy to the Worlds (ﷺ).
