٣٧٣٢٦ - حدثنا وكيع عن مسعر عن إبراهيم السكسكي قال: حدثنا أصحابنا عن أبي الدرداء قال: إن شئتم لأقسمن لكم: إن أحب العباد إلى اللَّه الذين يحبون اللَّه (ويحببون) (١) اللَّه إلى عباده (٢) والذين يراعون الشمس والقمر والنجوم (والأظلة) (٣) لذكر اللَّه (٤).
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: If you wish, I can swear to you. Indeed, the most beloved servants to Allah Almighty among His servants are those who love Allah, and who cause His servants to love Allah. They are those who, because of the remembrance of Allah, pay attention to the sun, the moon, the stars, and the shadows.
