SayyidiiAnas (RA) reported that a man came to Allah’s Messegner (SAW) and asked “When will the Hour come?” The Prophet stood up for salah and when he had finished the salah, he asked, “Where is he who asked about the Hour?” The man said, “Yes! O Messenger of Allah.” He asked. “What have you prepared for it?” He said, “I have not prepared for it with lenghty salah or fasting, but that I love Allah and His Messenger (SAW).“ So, Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “A man is with whom he loves and you will be with him whom you love.” The narrator said, “And I did not see the happiness of the Muslims after Islam like their happiness at this (disclosure).”
[Ahmed 12011]
