وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الرَّازِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُوسَى بْنَ عُبَيْدَةَ الرَّبَذِيَّ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الْقَرَّاظِ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ ؓ قَالَ:

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَسِيرُ بِالدُّفِّ مِنْ جُمْدَانَ إِذِ اسْتَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: « يَا مُعَاذُ، أَيْنَ السَّابِقُونَ ؟ » فَقُلْتُ: قَدْ مَضَى نَاسٌ وَتَخَلَّفَ نَاسٌ. فَقَالَ ﷺ: أَيْنَ السَّابِقُونَ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَهْتِرُونَ بِذِكْرِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَرْتَعَ فِي رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيُكْثِرْ مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

✧ While we were with the Messenger of God ﷺ traveling in a group from Jumdān, the Messenger of God ﷺ stopped and said: “O Muʿādh, where are the foremost?” I said: “Some have gone ahead and some have stayed behind.” He ﷺ said: “Where are the foremost who are devoted to the remembrance of God, Mighty and Majestic? Whoever would love to graze in the meadows of Paradise, let him increase in the remembrance of God, Mighty and Majestic.”
