hadith 3980
The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Spirits are pre-mobilized groups [from their conception in the pre-material world, and by virtue of their nature (ed.)] in that they are mutually attracted to other spirits that they are in harmony with, and they mutually repel those that they clash with.
رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): الأرواحُ جُنودٌ مُجَنَّدَةٌ ، فما تَعارَفَ مِنها ائتَلَفَ ، وما تَناكَرَ مِنها اختَلَفَ.

hadith 3982
Shaqiq b. Salama narrated that
a man once came to Imam Ali (AS) and was talking to him. In the course of the conversation, he told Imam Ali (AS) that he loved him. Imam replied, 'That is not true. The man asked, 'Why, O Commander of the Faithful?' He replied, 'Because I do not find my heart loving you, and the Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Verily spirits meet each other in the air and sense each other, and those that are in harmony with each other are mutually attracted, and those that clash repel each other.
كنز العمّال عن شقيق بن سلمة: جاءَ رجُلٌ إلى عَلِيٍّ وكَلَّمَهُ ، فقالَ
في عُرضِ الحديثِ: إنّي اُحِبُّكَ ، فقالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ: كَذَبتَ . قالَ: لِمَ يا أميرَ المؤمنينَ ؟ قالَ: لأنّي لا أرى قَلبِي يُحِبُّكَ ، قالَ النبيُّ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): إنّ الأرواحَ كانَت تَلاقى في الهَواءِ فَتَشامُّ ، ما تَعارَفَ مِنها ائتَلَفَ ، وما تَناكَرَ مِنها اختَلَفَ . فلَمّا كانَ من أمرِ عَلِيٍّ ما كانَ ، كانَ مِمَّن خَرَجَ علَيهِ.
