QUESTION: I wanted to ask whether love for the Beloved Messenger of Allah ﷺ is part of the fitrah—naturally present within the soul—or something entirely acquired. Since childhood, I have felt an instinctive love for him ﷺ, even before I read of his life. How do we understand this with the profound love of the Sahabah and believers who never saw him?
