The verse Abou Ben Adhem by Leigh Hunt is about the need of loving the fellow beings. The poet uses an Arabic story of a saint Abou Ben Adhem whose name got inscribed in the list of God lovers by his impartial love for humans.
According to the poet, we will be the real worshippers of God only when we will start loving His creations i.e. humans. Without loving others we will never be truly loving God.
