حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِلنَّفَسِ: اخْرُجِي، قَالَتْ: لاَ أَخْرُجُ إِلاَّ كَارِهَةً.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Allah ta'ala said to the self, 'Go forth.' It replied,
'I only go forth reluctantly.'"
Abu Dharr reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, was asked, "What action is best?" He replied, "Belief in Allah
and jihad in His way." He was asked, "Which slaves are best?" He replied,
"The highest in price and most precious to their people." He said, "What
do you think I should do if I am unable to fight?" He replied, "Help someone
in trouble or work for someone who does not work." He asked, "What do you
think that I should do if I am too weak (to act accordingly)?" He replied,
"Spare people your evil. That is a sadaqa which you bestow on yourself."
Anas reported that the Muhajirun said, "Messenger of Allah, the
Ansar have taken all the reward!" He said, "No, not as long as you make
supplication for them and praise them for it."
