حَدَّثَنَا طَاهِرُ بْنُ عِيسَى بْنِ قَيْرَسٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا ذَرًّ الْغِفَارِيَّ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ تَقَرَّبَ إِلَى اللهِ شِبْرًا تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْهِ ذِرَاعًا وَمَنْ تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْهِ ذِرَاعًا تَقَرَّبَ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ بَاعًا وَمَنْ أَقْبَلَ إِلَى اللهِ ﷻ مَاشِيًا أَقْبَلَ اللهُ ﷻ إِلَيْهِ مُهَرْوِلًا وَاللهُ أَعْلَى وَأَجَلُّ وَاللهُ أَعْلَى وَأَجَلُّ وَاللهُ أَعْلَى وَأَجَلُّ»

✧ I heard Abu Dharr Al-Ghifari while he was on the pulpit saying, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever comes close to Allah by a handspan, Allah will come close to him by a forearm's length. Whoever comes close to Allah by a forearm's length, Allah will come close to him by a distance of two arms. And whoever comes to Allah walking, Allah will come to him running. And Allah is greater and more majestic, and Allah is greater and more majestic, and Allah is greater and more majestic.'"
