حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي حُيَيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: إِنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ أَفْضَلِ الْأَعْمَالِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الصَّلَاةُ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَهْ؟ قَالَ: " الصَّلَاةُ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَهْ؟ قَالَ: " الصَّلَاةُ " ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ: فَلَمَّا غَلَبَ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ "، قَالَ الرَّجُلُ: فَإِنَّ لِي وَالِدَيْنِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " آمُرُكَ بِالْوَالِدَيْنِ خَيْرًا "، قَالَ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيًّا لَأُجَاهِدَنَّ وَلَأَتْرُكَنَّهُمَا؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ " (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and asked about the most virtuous deed. The Prophet (ﷺ) mentioned prayer. He asked the same question three times, and the Prophet (ﷺ) mentioned prayer each time. When the Prophet (ﷺ) was overcome by his questioning, he said: "Jihad in the way of Allah." The man said, "But I have parents as well?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "I command you to treat them well." He said, "By the One Who sent you with the truth, I will surely participate in jihad and leave them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "You know best."
