Loving Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him & his family)after loving Allah swt is key to succes:
‘Abdullaah Ibn Hishaam, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "We were with the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam as he was holding ‘Umar ibn Al-Khattaab, may Allaah be pleased with him, by his hand. ‘Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, said to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam: "You are more beloved to me than everything except myself." The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam replied: "No O 'Umar! I swear by Him in whose hand my soul is, (you will not truly believe) until I become more beloved to you than yourself." Thereupon, 'Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, said: "I swear by Allaah that you are now more beloved to me than myself." The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam replied: "Now! O ‘Umar (i.e., now your faith is complete)." (Bukhaari).
