أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ الْأَزْدِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حُبْشِيٍّ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «إِيمَانٌ لَا شَكَّ فِيهِ وَجِهَادٌ لَا غُلُولَ فِيهِ وَحَجَّةٌ مَبْرُورَةٌ» قِيلَ فَأَيُّ الصَّلَاةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «طُولُ الْقِيَامِ» قِيلَ فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «جُهْدُ مُقِلٍّ» قِيلَ فَأَيُّ الْهِجْرَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَهْجُرَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ» قِيلَ فَأَيُّ الْجِهَادِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ جَاهَدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِمَالِهِ وَنَفْسِهِ» قِيلَ فَأَيُّ الْقَتْلِ أَشْرَفُ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ عُقِرَ جَوَادُهُ وَأُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ»
