حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُهَيْلٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَخْبِرْنَا بِعَمَلٍ يَعْدِلُ الْجِهَادَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ قَالَ: لَا تُطِيقُونَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا قَالَ: قَالُوا أَخْبِرْنَا فَلَعَلَّنَا نُطِيقُهُ قَالَ: مَثَلُ الْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَمَثَلِ الصَّائِمِ الْقَائِمِ الْقَانِتِ بِآيَاتِ اللهِ لَا يَفْتُرُ مِنْ صِيَامٍ وَلَا صَلَاةٍ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ الْمُجَاهِدُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ.

✧ They said: O Messenger of Allah, inform us of a deed that equals jihad in the path of Allah. He said: You are not able to do it—twice or three times. He said: They said: Inform us, for perhaps we may be able to do it. He said: The example of the mujahid in the path of Allah is like the example of one who fasts, stands in prayer, and is devout to Allah's verses, not ceasing from fasting or prayer until the mujahid returns to his family.
