[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was on a journey and lost one of his companions. He was brought to him, and the Prophet said, "I wanted to seclude myself to worship my Lord and stay away from people." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not do that, and none of you should do that." He repeated this three times, and then he said, "Patience for an hour in some places of the Muslims is better than forty years of worship in seclusion."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَفَقَدَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَخْلُوَ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّي وَأَعْتَزِلَ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَا تَفْعَلْهُ وَلَا يَفْعَلْهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا فَلَصَبْرُ سَاعَةٍ فِي بَعْضِ مَوَاطِنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِبَادَةِ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا خَالِيًا
