[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There are forty good deeds, the highest of which is the milking of a goat. A man does not perform any of these qualities hoping for their reward or believing in their promise, except that Allah admits him to Paradise through them." Hassaan said: "So we started counting the responding of greetings, removing harmful objects from the path, and similar actions that are less than milking a goat, and we did not reach fifteen."

There are fourteen virtues

bukhari:2631Musaddad > ʿĪsá b. Yūnus > al-Awzāʿī > Ḥassān b. ʿAṭiyyah > Abū Kabshah al-Salūlī > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAmr

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There are forty virtues, the highest of them being to lend a milch-goat. No one performs any one of them, hoping for its reward and believing in what is promised for it, except that Allah will admit him to Paradise because of it.”

Hassan said: So we counted what is below lending a milch-goat, such as returning a greeting, saying the tashmiyah 'yarḥamuk Allāh' (may Allah have mercy on you) to one who sneezes, removing harm from the road, and the like, but we were not able to reach fifteen virtues.

البخاري:٢٦٣١حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ حَسَّانَ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ السَّلُولِيِّ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو ؓ يَقُولُ

قالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَرْبَعُونَ خَصْلَةً، أَعْلَاهُنَّ: مَنِيحَةُ الْعَنْزِ، ما مِنْ عَامِلٍ يَعْمَلُ بِخَصْلَةٍ منها رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِها، وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِها، إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ بِها الْجَنَّةَ» 

قالَ حَسَّانُ: فَعَدَدْنا ما دُونَ مَنِيحَةِ الْعَنْزِ، مِنْ رَدِّ السَّلَامِ، وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ، وَإِمَاطَةِ الأَذَى عن الطَّرِيقِ وَنَحْوِهِ، فَما اسْتَطَعْنا أَنْ نَبْلُغَ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ خَصْلَةً.
