The Prophet (ﷺ) informed, in the Divine Hadīth, that Allah Almighty said: Whoever harms a close ally of Mine, angers him, or shows him enmity, I have declared war against him and announced My hostility toward him. "Waliyy" is: the pious believer. The servant's share of Allah's closeness is in proportion to his level of faith and piety. A Muslim does not draw nearer to his Lord with anything more beloved to Him than what He has made obligatory upon him—performing the acts of obedience and avoiding the prohibitions. Then the Muslim continues to draw closer to his Lord with voluntary deeds alongside the obligatory ones until he attains Allah's love. When Allah loves him, Allah grants him guidance and success in these four faculties: He rightly guides him in his hearing; thus, he hears nothing but what pleases Allah. He rightly guides his sight; thus, he looks at nothing except what Allah loves to look at and what pleases Him. He rightly guides his hands; thus, he does nothing with his hand except what pleases Allah. He rightly guides his feet; thus, he walks to nothing except what pleases Allah and pursues only what is good. Along with all this, if he asks Allah for something, He grants him his request, and his supplication will be answered; and if he seeks refuge with Allah and resorts to Him seeking protection, Allah Almighty will grant him refuge and protection against what he fears.

Its wording and meaning are from Allah; however, it does not have the unique characteristics of the Qur'an that include reciting it as a form of worship, getting purified for it, presenting it as a challenge, its miraculousness, etc.
