Do not make them targets after I am gone. Whoever loves them does so out of love for me, and whoever hates them does so out of hatred for me. Whoever harms them has harmed me; whoever harms me has offended Allah; and whoever offends Allah—Mighty and Majestic—is in imminent danger of being seized by Him.”
