" إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا صَلَّى فِي الْعَلاَنِيَةِ فَأَحْسَنَ وَصَلَّى فِي السِّرِّ فَأَحْسَنَ - قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ هَذَا عَبْدِي حَقًّا "

“If a person prays in public and does it well, and he prays in secret and does it well, then Allah says: ‘This man is truly My slave.’”
Reported by Ibn Majah (No. 4200).
