" O Muhammad! A man loves the people but does not catch up to them (in deeds)." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "A man shall be with whomever he loves." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2387)
رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ رَجُلٌ أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ قَالَ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ
