[Machine] "We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a military expedition from his base camps. A man passed by a cave with some water in it. He thought to himself that he should stay in that cave and survive on the water and the nearby vegetation, and abandon worldly life. Then he said, 'If I mention this to the Prophet of Allah ﷺ , and he permits me, I will do it; otherwise, I will not.' So he went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'O Prophet of Allah, I passed by a cave with water and vegetation that can sustain me. My heart is inclined to stay there and abandon worldly life.' The Prophet ﷺ replied, 'Certainly, I have not been sent with Judaism or Christianity, but I have been sent with the tolerant, upright Hanif religion. By the One who holds the soul of Muhammad in His hand, staying one morning or one evening in the path of Allah is better than the world and whatever it contains. And the position of one of you in the row during prayer is better than his prayer for sixty years.'"
