It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah is more pleased with the repentance of His servant "when he repents" than a person who finds his mount which was lost in the desert, and on it are his food and drink.
