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.”
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الإِسْلاَمِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَىَّ فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ قَالَ لاَ يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
"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, the Mighty and Sublime.'"
لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الإِسْلاَمِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَىَّ فَأَنْبِئْنِي مِنْهَا بِشَىْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ قَالَ لاَ يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ﷻ
"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, the Mighty and Sublime.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3793)
لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الْإِسْلَامِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَيَّ فَأَنْبِئْنِي بِشَيْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ فَقَالَ «لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ»
[Machine] An Arab 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»
[Machine] Two Arab men came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asking him. One of them said, "O Messenger of Allah, who is the best of people?" He replied, "The one whose life is long and his actions are good." The other one said, "O Messenger of Allah, the Islamic laws have become numerous on me, so please tell me something that I can hold onto." He said, "Keep your tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah."
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيَّانِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْأَلَانِهِ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أِيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ؟ قَالَ مَنْ طَالَ عُمُرُهُ وَحَسُنَ عَمَلُهُ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الْإِسْلَامِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَيَّ فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِأَمْرٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ قَالَ لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا بِذِكْرِ اللهِ
