Sahih al-Jami al-Saghir — Hadith 8138

«يقول الله تعالى: أنا عند ظن عبدي بي وأنا معه حين يذكرني والله لله أفرح بتوبة عبده من أحدكم يجد ضالته بالفلاة ومن تقرب إلي شبرا تقربت إليه ذراعا ومن تقرب إلي ذراعا تقربت إليه باعا وإن أقبل إلي يمشي أقبلت إليه أهرول»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"Allah Almighty says: I am as My servant thinks of Me, and I am with him when he remembers Me. By Allah! Allah Almighty is more pleased with the repentance of His servant than one of you who finds his lost property in the wilderness. Whoever draws near to Me by a hand-span, I draw near to him by a forearm's length; whoever draws near to Me by a forearm's length, I draw near to him by an arm's span; and if he comes towards Me walking, I come towards him running."
