Hazrat Iraq bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Certainly, among all of you, I will be closest to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on the Day of Resurrection in terms of gathering. This is because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, the one among you who will be closest to me on the Day of Resurrection is the person who leaves this world in the same state as I left him in this world. And certainly, by Allah! There is not a single person among you except me, but that he has clung to something of this world.
