Narrated Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No one will be saved because of his deeds (rather, it will be by Allah's mercy)." The people asked, "Not even you, O Messenger of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: "Not even me, unless Allah's mercy envelops me." And he said: "Act with moderation, seek closeness to Allah, and worship in the morning, evening, and a part of the night, and acting with moderation will lead you to your desired destination (i.e., Paradise)."
