حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ

قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ؟ قَالَ: صَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ لِمَوَاقِيتِهَا. قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ: بِرُّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ. قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ أَيُّ؟ قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ. وَلَوِ اسْتَزَدْتُهُ لَزَادَنِي.

✧ I said: 'O Messenger of God, which deeds are most beloved to God, Mighty and Majestic?' He said: 'Pray the prayer at its proper times.' I said: 'Then which?' He said: 'Kindness to parents.' I said: 'Then which?' He said: 'Then striving in the path of God.' And if I had asked for more, he would have given me more.
