عَن أَنَسِ بْن مَالِكٍ رضى الله عنه، قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا أَنَا وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَارِجَانِ مِنَ المَسْجِدِ، فَلَقِيَنَا رَجُلٌ عِنْدَ سُدَّةِ المَسْجِدِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟»، فَكَأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ اسْتَكَانَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا كَبِيرَ صِيَامٍ، وَلا صَلاةٍ، وَلا صَدَقَةٍ،وَلَكِنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، قَالَ: «أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ».
Anas ibn Mālik narrated, saying:
As I was with the Prophet, coming out of the Mosque, a man met us near the shaded area of the mosque. He said: ‘Messenger of God, when is the Last Hour?’ The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: ‘What have you prepared for it?’ The man appeared to hesitate. He then said: ‘Messenger of God, I have not prepared much in the way of fasting, prayer or charity, but I love God and His Messenger’. The Prophet said: ‘You are with those you love’.
