أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ ثنا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَنْطَاكِيُّ ثنا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْفَزَارِيُّ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ أَبِي شَبِيبٍ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ فَقَالَ لِي «إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْبَأْتُكَ بِرَأْسِ الْأَمْرِ وَعَمُودِهِ وَذُرْوَةِ سَنَامِهِ» قَالَ قُلْتُ أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَمَّا «رَأْسُ الْأَمْرِ فَالْإِسْلَامُ وَأَمَّا عَمُودُهُ فَالصَّلَاةُ وَأَمَّا ذِرْوَةُ سَنَامِهِ فَالْجِهَادُ»

✧ We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the expedition of Tabuk. He said to me, 'If you wish, I will tell you of the head of the matter, its pillar, and the peak of its hump.' He said: I said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'As for the head of the matter, it is Islam; as for its pillar, it is prayer; and as for the peak of its hump, it is jihad.'
