Hadith #48309
وَعَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ يَلُونَ الصُّفُوفَ الْأُولَى وَمَا مِنْ خُطْوَةٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ من خطْوَة يمشيها يصل العَبْد بهَا صفا» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
On the authority of Al-Baraa bin Azib, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, used to say: “Indeed, God and His angels send blessings upon those who are in the first rows.” There is no step more beloved to God than a step that he takes by which a servant joins himself in rows.” Narrated by Abu Dawood
