[Machine] What brought you here? I said, "Seeking knowledge." He said, "I have heard that the angels lower their wings in approval of the seeker of knowledge." Then he mentioned the hadith and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A person will be with those whom he loves." He said, "Since then, he kept narrating to me until he mentioned that Allah has made a gate in the west, the width of which is a journey of seventy years, for repentance, and it will not be closed until the sun rises from its setting place. And that is the saying of Allah: 'On the Day when some of the signs of your Lord will come, belief will not benefit a soul that did not believe before.' [Al-An'am 158]. This is the hadith of Ka'b ibn 'Ujrah.
