The Prophet ﷺ was asked: Which of the actions is better ? He replied: Standing for long time (in prayer). He was again asked: Which alms is better ? He replied: The alms given by a man possessing small property acquired by his labour.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ أَىُّ الأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ طُولُ الْقِيَامِ قِيلَ فَأَىُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ جُهْدُ الْمُقِلِّ قِيلَ فَأَىُّ الْهِجْرَةِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ قِيلَ فَأَىُّ الْجِهَادِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ مَنْ جَاهَدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِمَالِهِ وَنَفْسِهِ قِيلَ فَأَىُّ الْقَتْلِ أَشْرَفُ قَالَ مَنْ أُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ وَعُقِرَ جَوَادُهُ
