أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى

إِذَا تَقَرَّبَ عَبْدِي مِنِّي شِبْرًا تَقَرَّبْتُ مِنْهُ ذِرَاعًا وَإِذَا تَقَرَّبَ مِنِّي ذِرَاعًا تَقَرَّبْتُ مِنْهُ بَاعًا وَإِذَا أَتَانِي مَشْيًا أَتَيْتُهُ هَرْوَلَةً وَإِنْ هَرْوَلَ سَعَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَاللَّهُ أَوْسَعُ بِالْمَغْفِرَةِ»

✧ "When My servant draws near to Me a span, I draw near to him a cubit. When he draws near to Me a cubit, I draw near to him a fathom. When he comes to Me walking, I come to him at speed. And if he runs, I hasten to him. And Allah is most capacious in forgiveness."
