حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَة ، قَالَ يَحْيَى : وَرُبَّمَا ذَكَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالَ : " لَا يَتَقَرَّبُ الْعَبْدُ إِلَيَّ شِبْرًا إِلَّا تَقَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ ذِرَاعًا ، وَلَا يَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَيَّ ذِرَاعًا إِلَّا تَقَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ بَاعًا ، أَوْ بُوعًا " .
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 Almighty says, "If a servant comes near to Me by a handspan, I come near to him by a cubit; if he comes near to Me by a cubit, I come near to him by a fathom."
