*   Remember Me through obedience! I will mention you with mercy.

*   Remember Me with duʿāˈ! I will mention you with bestowals.

*   Remember Me through praise and glorification! I will mention you with praise.

*   Remember Me in the world! I will mention you in the hereafter.

*   Remember Me in good health! I will mention you when you are afflicted with calamity.

*   Remember Me by striving to perform good! I will mention you by bestowing you with guidance.

*   People! Say: یَا رَبِّی - “O my Lord!”, I will say, عَبْدِی - “O My servant!”

*   Say, “I am a sinner”, and I will say, غَفَّار - “I am Most Forgiving.”^[1]

A hadith qudsi contains mention of how Allah said:

I am with my servant when he remembers Me. If he remembers me in his heart, I mention him to Myself. If he makes mention of me in a gathering, I make mention of him in a gathering better than it (referring to a gathering of angels).^[2]

O devotees of the Messenger! Consider how greatly esteemed it is to remember Allah, and how great an act of worship this is. Whoever remembers Allah will go on to be mentioned by Allah Himself in a way befitting His limitless majesty. May Allah grant us the ability to remember Him abundantly.
