The Prophet (Salla Allahu alaihi wasallam) said:
"None of you becomes a believer until I'm dearer to him than his children, his parents and all mankind"
[Bukhari and Muslim]
But...
How can one make the Prophet (Salla Allahu alaihi wasallam) dearer than his own children if he does not know the Prophet, how he behaved and interacted with his family, friends, and adversaries?
To love the Prophet (Salla Allahu alaihi wasallam)is to also love his noble character, way of living, and to love that which he loved.
