1 I will attain the love of Allah when I do the dearest of the deeds to him
Ibn ‘Umar ( May Allah be pleased with him ) narrated that the Prophet (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“The most beloved of people to Allaah is the one who brings most benefit to people,and the most beloved of deeds to Allaah is making a Muslim happy, or relieving him of hardship, or paying off his debt, or warding off hunger from him.

2 To attain the love of Allah
'Abdullah bin 'Amr ( May Allah be pleased with them ) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ( may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said, "The Salat which is dearest to Allah is that of (Prophet) Dawud; and As-Saum (the fasting) which is dearest to Allah is that of (Prophet) Dawud. He used to sleep half the night, get up to perform Salat for one-third of it, then sleep through the remaining one-sixth of it; and he used to observe Saum on alternative days."
[ Al-Bukhari and Muslim ].
