باب الْحَثِّ عَلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى:Chapter: Encouragement To Remember Allah, Exalted is He
حَدَّثَنَا أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامَ الْعَيْشِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ الْعَلَاءِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسِيرُ فِي طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ ، فَمَرَّ عَلَى جَبَلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ جُمْدَانُ ، فَقَالَ : " سِيرُوا هَذَا جُمْدَانُ سَبَقَ الْمُفَرِّدُونَ " ، قَالُوا : وَمَا الْمُفَرِّدُونَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " الذَّاكِرُونَ اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَالذَّاكِرَاتُ " .
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was travelling along the path leading to Makkah that he happened to pass by a mountain called Jumdan. He said: Proceed on, it is Jumdan, Mufarradun have gone ahead. They (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) said: Allah's Messenger, who are Mufarradun? He said: They are those males and females who remember Allah much.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: By "mufrid" or "mufrid" is meant that person whose companions and peers have passed away, and he has been left alone and isolated. "Afrada ar-rajul" is said at the time when, after gaining understanding and insight, a person separates himself in order to devote himself exclusively to the fulfillment and observance of commands and prohibitions. Thus, the meaning is that those people who, by adopting seclusion, avoid gatherings of people and spend their time in the remembrance of Allah—whether they are men or women—have won the contest of reward and recompense, and have attained the great ranks and degrees of Allah’s acceptance and pleasure, and have advanced far ahead.
