Sahih Muslim 1900

Translation

A man from Banu Nabit (one of the Ansar tribes) came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: I testify that there is no god except Allah and that thou art His bondman and Messenger. Then he went forward and fought until he was killed. The Prophet ﷺ said: He has done a little but shall be given a great reward.
