Enmity Against The Devotees Of Allah And Its Consequences

Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala says :

Whosoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him.
My servant draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me then the religious duty I have enjoined upon him, and My servant continuous to draw near to Me with supererogatory works, so that I shall Love him.
When I Love him, I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes and his foot with which he walks.
Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it.
I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about (seizing) the soul of My faithful servant; he hates death and I hate hurting him.
