REPENTANCE


Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him)
as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: I live in
the thought of My servant and I am with him as he remembers
Me. (The Holy Prophet) further said: By Allah, Allah is more
pleased wth the repentance of His servant than what one of you
would do on finding the lost camel in the waterless desert.
When he draws near Me by the span of his hand. I draw near him
by the length of a cubit and when he draws near Me by the
length of a cubit. I draw near him by the length of a fathom
and when he draws near Me walking I draw close to him
hurriedly.

[Sahih Al-Bukhari, eng. Translation, Chapter 1,Bk 37, Number 6610]
