The allies of Allah are those who seek His pleasure by doing what He has commanded, avoiding what He has forbidden, and patiently bearing what He has decreed. This is a summary whose detailed exposition would be lengthy and exceed the space available here. Allah knows best.
الَّتِي تُحِبُّهَا الشَّيَاطِينُ وَمُرْتَكِبًا لِلْفَوَاحِشِ أَوْ ظَالِمًا لِلنَّاسِ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَغَيْرِ ذَلِكَ.
وَاَللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَدْ حَرَّمَ:
{الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَالْإِثْمَ وَالْبَغْيَ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ وَأَنْ تُشْرِكُوا بِاللَّهِ}
الْآيَةَ. وَأَوْلِيَاءُ اللَّهِ هُمْ الَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ رِضَاهُ بِفِعْلِ الْمَأْمُورِ وَتَرْكِ الْمَحْظُورِ وَالصَّبْرِ عَلَى الْمَقْدُورِ وَهَذِهِ جُمْلَةٌ لَهَا بَسْطٌ طَوِيلٌ لَا يَتَّسِعُ لَهُ هَذَا الْمَكَانُ. وَاَللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ.
