ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ , عَنِ
الْمَقْبُرِيِّ , عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ , أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :
" لَا يُنْجِي أَحَدَكُمْ عَمَلُهُ " , قَالُوا : وَلَا أَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " وَلَا أَنَا , إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَغَمَّدَنِي اللَّهُ مِنْهُ بِرَحْمَةٍ , فَسَدِّدُوا , وَقَارِبُوا , وَاغْدُوا , وَرُوحُوا , وَشَيْءٌ مِنَ الدُّلْجَةِ , وَالْقَصْدَ الْقَصْدَ تَبْلُغُوا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: None of you will be saved by his deeds. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), not even you? He replied: Not even me, unless my Lord covers me with His forgiveness and mercy. Therefore, remain on the right path, but stay close to the straight path. Set out in the morning and evening, devote a portion of the night to worship, and adopt moderation; you will reach your destination.
