6407. Narrated Abū Mūsā رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "The example of the one who remembers (glorify the Praises of) his Lord (Allāh) in comparison to the one who does not remembers (glorify the Praises of) his Lord, is that of a living creature compared to a dead one."

Arabic text

6407 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ العَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَثَلُ الَّذِي يَذْكُرُ رَبَّهُ وَالَّذِي لاَ يَذْكُرُ رَبَّهُ، مَثَلُ الحَيِّ وَالمَيِّتِ»
