Two Bedouins came to the Prophet ﷺ. One of them said, “Who are the best of men, O Muhammad?” The Prophet ﷺ said: “The one whose life is long and whose deeds are good.”

The other said, “The laws of Islam have become many for us; is there a comprehensive gate we can hold fast to?” He said: “Let your tongue never cease to be moist with the remembrance of Allah.”

أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا: مَنْ خَيْرُ الرِّجَالِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَنْ طَالَ عُمْرُهُ، وَحَسُنَ عَمَلُهُ»، 

وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الْإِسْلَامِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَيْنَا، فَبَابٌ نَتَمَسَّكُ بِهِ جَامِعٌ؟ قَالَ: «لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ».

A man said: “O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, indeed, the legislated acts of Islam have become too much for me, so inform me of a thing that I should stick to.” He ﷺ said: “Let not your tongue cease to be moist with the remembrance of Allah.”

أَنَّ رَجُلاً قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الإِسْلاَمِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَىَّ، فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ. قَالَ: «لاَ يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ».

An Arab Bedouin said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: *“The laws of Islam are burdensome for me. Tell me of something that I will be able to adhere to. He said: “Always keep your tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah ﷻ.”

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الإِسْلاَمِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَىَّ، فَأَنْبِئْنِي مِنْهَا بِشَىْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ. قَالَ: «لاَ يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ﷻ».

Two Arab Bedouins came to the Prophet ﷺ and one of them said, "O Messenger of Allah, tell me something that I can cling to." He said, "Keep your tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah."

جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِأَمْرٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ. قَالَ: «لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ».
