'O Lord, what is the best act through which those near to You draw nearer?'
[Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal] said, "I saw the Lord of Power in my sleep, and said, 'O Lord, what is the best act through which those near to You draw nearer?' and He answered, 'Through [reciting] my word, O Ahmad.' I asked, 'With understanding, or without?' and He answered, 'With understanding and without.'
