حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ، ثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَابَانَ، عَنْ لُقْمَانَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ قَالَ:
إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ: عُوَيْمِرٌ، ازْدَدْ عَقْلًا، تَزْدَدْ مِنْ رَبِّكَ قُرْبًا قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَكَيْفَ لِي بِذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: اجْتَنِبْ مَحَارِمَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَأَدِّ فَرَائِضَ اللهِ تَعَالَى، تَكُنْ عَاقِلًا، وَتَنَفَّلْ مِنَ الْأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَاتِ، تَزْدَدْ بِهَا فِي عَاجِلِ الدُّنْيَا رِفْعَةً وَكَرَامَةً، وَتَنَلْ بِهَا مِنْ رَبِّكَ الْقُرْبَ وَالْعِزَّةَ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ said to him: O Uwaymir, increase in intellect, and you will increase in nearness to your Lord. He said: May my father and mother be your ransom, O Messenger of God, how can I do that? He said ﷺ: Avoid what God, Mighty and Majestic, has forbidden, and perform the obligatory duties of God Almighty; you will be a man of intellect. And do voluntary acts of righteous deeds—through them you will increase in rank and honor in this present world, and through them you will attain nearness and might from your Lord.
