Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: If anyone sits in a place and does not remember Allah there, then this sitting will cause him a loss from Allah and if anyone lies down in a place and does not remember Allah, then this will cause him a loss from Allah. (Abu Dawud: 4856)

Anas ibne-Malik Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: To sit with people who are doing the Dhikr of Allah after Salat-uli-Fajr till the sun rises is more pleasing to me than setting free four slaves from the progeny of Isma'il 'Alaihis Salam. And to sit with people who are doing the Dhikr of Allah after Salat-ul-'Asr till the sun sets is more pleasing to me than setting free four slaves from the progeny of Isma'il 'Alaihis Salam. (Abu Dawud: 3667) Note: The slaves from the progeny of Isma'il 'Alaihis Salam are mentioned in this Hadith as they were considered the most noble amongst the Arabs, and so more valuable.

Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: The Mufarridun have gone ahead! Sahabah asked: Who are the Mufarridun, O Rasulallah? He replied: Those who are devoted intensively to the remembrance of Allah. Allah's remembrance reduces their burdens. Hence, they will come with a little burden on the Day of Resurrection.

Hanzalah AI-Usaidi Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: I swear by the One in Whose Hand is my life that if you were to maintain the state in which you are with me, and continue the remembrance of Allah, the angels would shake hands with you on your beds and in your walkways; but O Hanzalah! There is a time for every thing. He said this three times. (Muslim: 6966) Note: This hadlth means that one cannot maintain the same state and level of feelings continually, rather the state of one's heart keeps changing with the happenings of daily life.

Abu Darda Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked: Would you like me to tell you the best of all your deeds and the purest of them to your Lord, which raises your ranks to the highest and is better for you than the spending of gold and silver (in the path of Allah), and better for you than that you encounter your enemy whose necks you cut and who cut your necks? The Sahabah replied: Yes, indeed! He said: It is the Dhikr of Allah, the Exalted. (Tiimidhi: 3377)
