Allah the Exalted said, `Whoever mentions Me to himself, then I will mention him to Myself; and whoever mentions Me in a gathering, I will mention him in a better gathering.'

Imam Ahmad reported that Anas narrated that Allah's Messenger said;

قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَا ابْنَ ادَمَ إِنْ ذَكَرْتَنِي فِي نَفْسِكَ ذَكَرْتُك فِي نَفْسِي إِنْ ذَكَرْتَنِي فِي مَلَاٍ ذكَرْتُكَ فِي مَلَاٍ مِنَ الْمَلَايِكَةِ أَوْ قَالَ فِي مَلَاٍ خَيْرٍ مِنْهُ وَإِنْ دَنَوْتَ مِنِّي شِبْرًا دَنَوْتُ مِنْكَ ذِرَاعًا وَإِنْ دَنَوْتَ مِنِّي ذِرَاعًا دَنَوْتُ مِنْكَ بَاعًا وَإنْ أَتَيْتَنِي تَمْشِي أَتَيْتُكَ هَرْوَلَة

Imran bin Husayn came by us once wearing a nice silken garment that we never saw him wear before or afterwards.
