Abdul Muttalib bin Rabee’ah says that once Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) presented himself in the court of the Messenger and said: O Messenger of Allah! We go out and see that the people of Quraysh are talking among themselves, but when they see us, they become silent. At this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) became angry and the vein between his two eyes swelled. Then he said:“By Allah! Faith cannot enter a person’s heart until he loves you for the sake of Allah’s pleasure and because of my kinship.”
