Dhikr (3)
Zikrullah – Remembrance of Allah
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُسْرٍ، قَالَ: أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ
وَسَلَّمَ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا: مَنْ خَيْرُ الرِّجَالِ يَا
مُحَمَّدُ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ” مَنْ طَالَ
عُمْرُهُ، وَحَسُنَ عَمَلُهُ “، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: إِنَّ شَرَائِع
الْإِسْلَامِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَيْنَا، فَبَابٌ نَتَمَسَّكُ بِهِ جَامِعٌ؟
قَالَ: ” لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ “
Hazrat Abdullah bin Busr reported: Two desert Arabs came to the Prophet (SAW), and one of them said, “Who is the best man, O Muhammad (SAW)?” The Prophet (SAW) said, “One who has a long life filled with good deeds.” The other man said, “Indeed, the laws of Islam are too many for us, so give us something comprehensive we can hold onto.” The Prophet (SAW) said, “Keep your tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah the Exalted.”
