English translation

3596. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The Mufarridūn have preceded." They said: "And who are the Mufarridūn, O Messenger of Allāh?" He said: "Those who absorb themselves in the remembrance of Allāh, and remembrance removes their heavy burdens from them, until they will come on the Day of Judgment being light (in weight of their burdens)." (Ḍa'īf) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb.

Arabic text

٣٥٩٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ ‌عُمَرَ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ، عَنْ ‌يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سَبَقَ الْمُفَرِّدُونَ». قَالُوا: وَمَا الْمُفَرِّدُونَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ الْمُسْتَهْتَرُونَ فِي ذِكْرِ اللهِ يَضَعُ الذِّكْرُ عَنْهُمْ أَثْقَالَهُمْ، فَيَأْتُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ خِفَافًا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ.

Commentary

'Mufarridūn' are those who avoid the people and attractions of the world in order to focus on worship and remembrance of Allāh ﷻ and sometimes this aloofness adds to their concentration on worship. The remembrance of Allāh ﷻ also removes the heavy burden of worldly affairs and lessens their needs.
