The Prophet ﷺ was asked: "Which deeds are best?" He said: "Faith in which there is no doubt, jihad in which there is no misappropriation of the spoils, and an accepted Hajj." It was said: "Which prayer is best?" He said: "Long standing." It was said: "Which charity is best?" He said: "The effort of one who has little." It was said: "Which emigration is best?" He said: "That of the one who abandons what Allah has forbidden to him." It was said: "Which jihad is best?" He said: "That of the one who strives against the polytheists with his wealth and his self." It was said: "Which kind of killing is most noble?" He said: "That of the one whose blood is spilled and whose noble horse is hamstrung."
