"Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, said: 'Those who love each other for the sake of My Majesty shall be upon podiums of light, and they will be admired by the Prophets and the martyrs.'"  

الترمذي:٢٣٩٠حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ بُرْقَانَ حَدَّثَنَا حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْزُوقٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلاَنِيِّ حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ الْمُتَحَابُّونَ فِي جَلاَلِي لَهُمْ مَنَابِرُ مِنْ نُورٍ يَغْبِطُهُمُ النَّبِيُّونَ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ وَابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَعُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبِي مَالِكٍ الأَشْعَرِيِّ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَأَبُو مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلاَنِيُّ اسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ ثُوَبَ

[Machine] On the authority of Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari who said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There are servants of Allah who will have pulpits of light on the Day of Resurrection. They are neither Prophets nor Martyrs, but the Prophets and the Martyrs will envy them." People asked: "Who are they, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied: "They are the ones who love each other for the sake of Allah."  

الطبراني:٣٤٣٤حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ التُّسْتَرِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ ثنا مَالِكُ بْنُ سُعَيْرٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ شَمِرِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ

عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ ؓ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «عِبَادٌ لِلَّهِ تُوضَعُ لَهُمْ مَنَابِرُ مِنْ نُورٍ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَيْسُوا بِأَنْبِيَاءَ وَلَا شُهَدَاءَ يَغْبِطُهُمُ النَّبِيُّونَ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ» قَالُوا فَمَنْ هُمْ؟ قَالَ «الْمُتَحَابُّونَ فِي اللهِ ﷻ»
