I rush

I am near to the thought of My servant as he thinks about Me,
and I am with him as he remembers Me.
And if he remembers Me in his heart,
I also remember him in My Heart,
and if he remembers Me in assembly
I remember him in assembly,
better than his (remembrance),
and if he draws near Me by the span of a palm,
I draw near him by the cubit,
and if he draws near Me by the cubit
I draw near him by the space (covered by) two hands.
And if he walks towards Me, I rush towards him.

~Abu Huraira, Sahih Muslim 2675
