The Invalidity of the Claim that Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) Loves Everyone and Hates No One
A clarification that the sinful believer is loved by Allah, the Most High, in one respect, and disliked in another
Question: Many Muslims claim that Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) loves everyone, including the disbelievers, and that He cannot hate anyone. What should we say to such people?
Answer: The statement that Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) loves everyone and hates no one is a false and misguided claim, contradicting what Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) has described Himself with, and what He has informed about Himself. For indeed, He — Glorified and Exalted be He — loves and hates, is pleased and displeased.
Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) has mentioned in the Noble Qur’an the qualities of those He loves and those He does not like.
There is no doubt that Allah hates the disbeliever, as has been made clear above.
As for the sinful believer, he is loved by Allah, Exalted be He, in one respect, and disliked in another — loved for his faith and monotheism, yet disliked for his disobedience, such as when he is indecent or foul in speech.
Indeed, Allah Exalted be He, loves the obedient, hates the disobedient, loves the repentance of His servants, rejoices in it, and calls them all to it.
