حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَا عِنْدَ ظَنِّ عَبْدِي بِي وَأَنَا مَعَهُ حِينَ يَذْكُرُنِي، وَلَلَّهُ أَفْرَحُ بِتَوْبَةِ عَبْدِهِ مِنْ أَحَدِكُمْ يَجِدُ ضَالَّتَهُ بِالْفَلَاةِ. قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: أُرَاهُ ضَالَّتَهُ، وَمَنْ تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ شِبْرًا تَقَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ ذِرَاعًا، وَمَنْ تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ ذِرَاعًا، تَقَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ بَاعًا، فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَ إِلَيَّ يَمْشِي أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ أُهَرْوِلُ.

✧ I am as My servant thinks of Me, and I am with him when he remembers Me. By Allah, Allah is happier with the repentance of His servant than one of you who finds his stray camel in the desert. Abu 'Abd Allah said: I think he said 'his stray camel.' Whoever draws near to Me a handspan, I draw near to him an arm's length; whoever draws near to Me an arm's length, I draw near to him a fathom; and if he comes to Me walking, I come to him at speed.
