وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ فِي الزُّهْدِ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عِرَاكَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ ؓ:
إِنِّي لَأَقْرَبُكُمْ مَجْلِسًا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا كَهَيْئَتِهِ يَوْمَ تَرَكْتُهُ فِيهَا، وَإِنَّهُ وَاللهِ مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا وَقَدْ تَشَبَّثَ مِنْهَا بِشَيْءٍ غَيْرِي

✧ Indeed, I am the closest of you in seating to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the Day of Resurrection - whoever leaves this world in the same state as when I left him in it. By Allah, there is none of you but has clung to something of this world except me.
