Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy on him) said: There is no love between any two souls greater than that that exists between the spouses. Tafseer Ibn Katheer , 3/525 But we do not mean that the love should be “mad” or “crazy” as people say. Rather it should be moderate and appropriate. Zayd ibn Aslam narrated that his father said: ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab said to me: O Aslam, do not let your love (for anyone) be obsessive and do not let your hatred (of anyone) be destructive. I said: How is that? He said: When you love, do not go to a level of obsession as a child does with the thing he loves, and when you hate, do not hate in such a way that you want your opponent to be destroyed and doomed. Narrated by ‘Abd ar-Razzaaq in al- Musannaf , 20269; its isnaad is saheeh.
