Remembering Allah

Hadith of Abu Musa, as well as this hadith of Abu Hurayrah, in
which the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:“Allah has Angels who roam the roads, seeking out those who remember Him. So, if they find those who remember Allah, they call out: ‘Come see what you’re looking for!’ and the Angels encircle them with their wings up to the sky.

Then, their Lord asks them - though He Knows better than them – ‘What do My
slaves say?'

The Angels reply: ‘They say: subhan Allah, Allahu Akbar, and al-hamdu lil-Lah.’

Allah then Says: ‘Did they see Me?' ’

The Angels reply: ‘No! By Allah, they didn't see You.’

Allah Says: ‘How it would have been if they saw Me?’

The Angels reply: ‘If they saw You, they would worship You more devoutly and
praise You more, and declare Your freedom from any resemblance to anything more
often.’

Allah will Say: ‘What do they ask Me for?’

The Angels reply: ‘They ask You for Paradise.’

Allah Says: ‘Did they see it?’

The Angels say: ‘No! By Allah, O Lord! They did not see it.’

Allah Says: ‘How it would have been if they saw it?’

The Angels say: ‘If they saw it, they would have greater desire for it, and would seek
it with greater zeal.’

Allah Says: ‘From what do they seek refuge?’

The Angels reply: 'They seek refuge from the Fire.’

Allah Says: ‘Did they see it?’

The Angels say: ‘No, by Allah, O Lord! They did not see it.’

Allah Says: ‘How it would have been if they saw it?’

The Angels say: ‘If they saw it, they would flee from it swiftly, and would have
extreme fear of it.’

Then, Allah says: ‘I make you witnesses that I have Forgiven them.’

One of the Angels would then say: ‘There was such and such a person amongst
them, and he was not one of them. Rather, he had just come for some need of his.’

Allah would then Say: ‘These are people whose companions will not be saddened.’”
