حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ: أَرَى الْجِهَادَ أَفْضَلَ الْعَمَلِ، أَفَلَا نُجَاهِدُ ؟ قَالَ: لَكِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الْجِهَادِ حَجٌّ مَبْرُورٌ
