In another narration recorded by Muslim, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “When Allah, the Exalted, loves a servant, He calls Gabriel and says, ‘I love so-and-so; so love him.’ Gabriel then loves him and proclaims among the inhabitants of heaven, ‘Allah loves so-and-so; so love him.’ Consequently, the dwellers of heaven love him, and acceptance is placed for him on earth. When Allah detests a servant, He calls Gabriel and says, ‘I detest so-and-so; so detest him.’ Gabriel detests him, then announces among the inhabitants of heaven, ‘Allah detests so-and-so; so detest him.’ They therefore detest him, and aversion toward him is laid down in heaven.”

3/388 — ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dispatched a man in command of a raiding party. In the prayer he led for his companions he would conclude his recitation with “Say: He is Allah, One.” When they returned, they mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, “Ask him why he does that.” They asked him, and he replied, “Because it describes the Most Merciful, and I love to recite it.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, “Inform him that Allah, exalted be He, loves him.” Agreed upon.
