Original Arabic

وَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمَا مِنَ اللَّيْلَ يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى الطَّهُورِ وَعَلَيْهِ عُقَدٌ فَيَتَوَضَّأُ، فَإِذَا وَضَّأَ يَدَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ وَجْهَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، وَإِذَا مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ رِجْلَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، فَيَقُولُ اللهُ لِلَّذِينَ وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ: انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي هَذَا، ، يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ يَسْأَلُنِي، مَا سَأَلَنِي عَبْدِي فَهُوَ لَهُ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

And I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say that there are two men from my Ummah, one of whom wakes up at night and prepares himself for ablution. At that time, there are some knots tied upon him. So when he performs ablution, as he washes his hands, one knot is untied; when he washes his face, another knot is untied; when he wipes his head, another knot is untied; and when he washes his feet, another knot is untied. And Allah, the Exalted, says to those who are unseen: "Look at My servant who has struggled against his own self. Whatever My servant asks of Me, he will be granted."
