أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَلَّهُ أَفْرَحُ بِتَوْبَةِ عَبْدِهِ مِنِ رَجُلٍ ضَلَّتْ لَهُ رَاحِلَتُهُ بَدَوِّيَّةٍ مُهْلِكَةٍ عَلَيْهَا طَعَامُهُ وَشَرَابُهُ فَطَلَبَهَا حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَ الْجَهْدَ قَالَ أَرْجِعُ مَوْضِعَ رَحْلِي فَأَمُوتُ فِيهِ فَرَجَعَ فَقَامَ فَإِذَا رَاحِلَتُهُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ عَلَيْهَا طَعَامُهُ وَشَرَابُهُ

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Allah is happier with the repentance of His servant than a man whose mount went astray in a barren, deadly desert, carrying his food and drink. He searched for it until, when exhaustion overtook him, he said, 'I will return to the place where I lost it and die there.' He returned, and as he sat up, behold, his mount was by his head, with its food and drink.
