Hazrat Abdullah bin Shaqiq Al-Uqaili narrates that I heard Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) say: "For me to weep out of fear of Allah until tears flow down my cheeks is more beloved to me than giving away gold equal to my own weight in charity. By the One in whose hand is the soul of Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), whenever any Muslim weeps out of fear of Allah and his tears fall upon the earth, the fire of Hell cannot touch him until a drop of water that has fallen from the sky returns to its original place—and that can never happen."
