Allah is more pleased with the repentance of His slave than anyone of you is pleased with finding his camel which he had lost in the desert.
للهُ أفرحُ بتوبة عبده من أحدكم سقط على بعيره وقد أضله في أرضِ فلاةAnd in a narration by Muslim:
Allah is more pleased with the repentance of a servant as he turns towards Him for repentance than this that one amongst you is upon the camel in a waterless desert and there is upon (that camel) his provision of food and drink also and it is lost by him, and he having lost all hope (to get tbat) lies down in the shadow and is disappointed about his camel and there he finds that camel standing before him.
