Anas رضى الله عنه says that Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم passed by a villager who was supplicating
in his prayer and saying:
O The One to whom the eyes cannot see.
O The One whom the imagination cannot reach.
O The One whose attributes are beyond description by
those who describe.
O The One who is not affected by life's occurrences.
O The One Who has no fear of the changing times.
O The One Who knows the weight of the mountains.
O The One Who knows the length and breadth of the oceans.
O The One Who knows the number of rain drops.
O The One Who knows the number of the leaves on the trees.
O The One Who knows all the things covered by the
darkness of night and illuminated by the brightness of day.
O The One Whom the heaven cannot hide from the other heaven.
O The One Whom the earth cannot cover with another earth.
O The One Who knows what is in the belly of the sea.
O The One Who knows what is hidden inside the rocks!
Make the last part of my life the best one and make my last
deed the best one, and may my best day be the one when I
meet you.
Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم made someone responsible to bring the villager to him after he
finished his prayer. Therefore he came to Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم. Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم
had received some gold He gave it to the villager as a gift and he asked him "O Aarabi!
To which tribe do you belong? "He replied "O Messenger of Allah! I am from the tribe
'Amir Bin Sasaa'." Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم said "Do you know why I have given you the gold?
" He said "O Messenger of Allah! We are related to each other that is why." Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم
said "There are rights of relatives but I have gifted you the gold because of your excellent
praise of Allah. (Hayatus Sahabah)
