Sahih (Al-Albani)
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ‏:‏ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، مَتَى السَّاعَةُ‏؟‏ فَقَالَ‏:‏ وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ مِنْ كَبِيرٍ، إِلاَّ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، فَقَالَ‏:‏ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ‏.‏
Anas reported that a man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) "Prophet of Allah, when will the Final Hour come?" He said, "Have you not made preparation for it?" He replied, " I am not prepared for a terrible event , but I love Allah and His Messenger." He said, "A man is with the one he loves."
