حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ، وَأَزْكَاهَا (٢) عِنْدَ مَلِيكِكُمْ، وَأَرْفَعِهَا لِدَرَجَاتِكُمْ، وَخَيْرٍ لَكُمْ مِنْ إِعْطَاءِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْوَرِقِ، وَخَيْرٍ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْ تَلْقَوْا عَدُوَّكُمْ (٣) فَتَضْرِبُوا رِقَابَهُمْ وَيَضْرِبُونَ (٤) رِقَابَكُمْ؟ ذِكْرُ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " (٥)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Shall I not tell you of the best deed in the sight of your Lord, which raises you to the highest ranks, which is better for you than spending gold and silver, and better than meeting your enemy in the battlefield so that you strike their necks and they strike your necks? The companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is that deed? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The remembrance of Allah Almighty.
