Sahih Muslim, 6959

Al-Bara' b. 'Azib reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said:What is your opinion about the delight of a person whose camel loaded with the provisions of food and drink is lost and that moves about with its nosestring trailing upon the waterless desert in which there is neither food nor drink, and lie wanders about in search of that until he is completely exhausted and then accidentally it happens to pass by the trunk of a tree and its nosestring gets entangled in that and he finds it entangled therein? He (in response to the question of the Holy Prophet) said: Allah's Messenger, he would feel highly delighted. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said. By Allah, Allah is more delighted at the repentance of His servant than that person (as he finds his lost) camel

Rapporté par Al-Bara' b. 'Azib : Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a dit : « Que pensez-vous de la joie d’une personne dont le chameau chargé de nourriture et de boisson se perd et erre dans un désert sans eau ni nourriture ? Il le cherche jusqu’à être complètement épuisé, puis, par hasard, le chameau passe près d’un arbre et sa longe s’y accroche, et il le retrouve ainsi. » (En réponse à la question du Prophète ﷺ, il dit : « Ô Messager d’Allah, il serait extrêmement heureux. ») Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ dit alors : « Par Allah, Allah est plus heureux du repentir de Son serviteur que cette personne ne l’est en retrouvant son chameau. »
