It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Verily, Allah Almighty has said: When My servant comes near to Me by a span, I come near to him by a hand’s length; and if he comes near to Me by a hand’s length, I come near to him by the span of two outstretched arms; and when he comes near to Me by the span of two outstretched arms, I come to him even more quickly.
