This is a beautiful lecture by Ali Ataie outlining the importance of love for the Ahlul Bayt from traditional Sunni sources. As Muslims, Sunni and Shia, we are commanded by the Prophet (pbuh) to hold on to the book of Allah and to his family. To love and follow the Ahlul Bayt is not a Shia practice; it is a Muslim practice.
