حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ أَبَا عُثْمَانَ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ رَجُلٌ لَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنَ النَّاسِ مِمَّنْ يُصَلِّي الْقِبْلَةَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَبْعَدَ مَنْزِلًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلِ وَكَانَ لَا تُخْطِئُهُ صَلَاةٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ لَوِ اشْتَرَيْتَ حِمَارًا تَرْكَبُهُ فِي الرَّمْضَاءِ وَالظُّلْمَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ مَنْزِلِي إِلَى جَنْبِ الْمَسْجِدِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَنُمِيَ الْحَدِيثُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَرَدْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكْتَبَ لِي إِقْبَالِي إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَرُجُوعِي إِلَى أَهْلِي إِذَا رَجَعْتُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَعْطَاكَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنْطَاكَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَا احْتَسَبْتَ كُلَّهُ أَجْمَعَ .

There was a certain person, out of all people of Madina, who used to pray in the mosque. I do not know that any one of them lived at a farther distance than that man. Still he never missed the prayer in congregation in the mosque. I said: it would be better if you buy a donkey and ride it in heat and darkness. He said: I do not like that my house be by the side of the mosque. The discourse reached the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He said him about it. He said: I did it so that my walking to the mosque and return to my home when I return be recorded. He said: Allah has granted all this to you; Allah has granted all that you reckoned.
