Hadith #38763
-وعن أبي بن كعب رضي الله عنه قال: كان رجل من الأنصار لا أعلم أحدًا أبعد من المسجد منه، وكانت لا تخطئه صلاة! فقيل له: لو اشتريت حمارًا تركبه في الظلماء وفي الرمضاء قال: ما يسرني أن منزلي إلى جنب المسجد إني أريد أن يكتب لي ممشاي إلى المسجد، ورجوعي إذا رجعت إلى أهلي، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم:
"قد جمع الله لك ذلك كله" ((رواه مسلم)).
On the authority of Ubayy ibn Ka’b, may God be pleased with him, he said: There was a man from the Ansar who I did not know of anyone farther from the mosque than him, and his prayer was not missed! He was told: If you bought a donkey, you would ride it in the dark and in the rain. He said: I would not be happy if my house was next to the mosque. I want my walk to the mosque and my return to be recorded for me when I return to my family. Then the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “God has gathered.” All of that is yours.” (Narrated by: Muslim)..
