Ubai ibn Ka’b radiyAllahu ta’ala ‘anhu narrates that I was once in the mosque when a man entered and began praying Salah. He recited a Qir’ah (recitation) which was unfamiliar to me. Then another man entered who recited in a way different to the first man. When I finished my Salah, we all went to the auspicious presence of Rasulullah ﷺand I asked, the recitation of the first man seemed strange to me and the recitation of the second man was different to the first man’s.Rasulullah ﷺasked them both to recite and thereafter praised them both. My heart then felt a rejection that I had not even felt in the days of ignorance. Rasulullah ﷺsaw the inner feelings of my heart and placed his blessed hand on my chest. I became drenched in sweat and my state became such that I am seeing Allah. Sahih Muslim, vol.1, p.273

Rasulullah ﷺthen asked, “What were you thinking in your heart?” “Nothing”, he replied, “I was only doing the remembrance of Allah”. Rasulullah ﷺsmiled and said, “Continue with this remembrance” and then placed his blessed hand on Fudala’s chest. His heart immediately received peace. Fudala radiyAllahu ta’ala ‘anhu used to say, “By Allah! Even before Rasulullah ﷺhad lifted his hand off my chest, there was nothing in the whole of creation that was dearer to me than Rasulullah sallAllahu ‘alaihi wasallam.al-Sirat al-Nabawiya ma’a al-Rawd al-Anf, vol.2, p.276; Fiqh al-Sira, p.263
