That which is done continuously, even if it is small.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ أَىُّ الْعَمَلِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ قَالَ أَدْوَمُهُ وَإِنْ قَلَّ

"I asked 'Aishah and Umm Salamah about which deed did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ like to do most. They said: 'Whatever he could do regularly, even if it was little.'"

سُئِلَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَأُمُّ سَلَمَةَ أَىُّ الْعَمَلِ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَتَا مَا دِيمَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass away until most of his prayers were offered sitting down, except for the obligatory prayers, and the dearest of actions to him were those which were done persistently, even if they were few."

مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرُ صَلاَتِهِ قَاعِدًا إِلاَّ الْفَرِيضَةَ وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ أَدْوَمَهُ وَإِنْ قَلَّ

"By the One in Whose Hand is my soul. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass away until most of his prayers were offered sitting down, except for the obligatory prayers, and the dearest of actions to him were those which were done persistently, even if they were few."

وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرُ صَلاَتِهِ قَاعِدًا إِلاَّ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ مَا دَاوَمَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ خَالَفَهُ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ فَرَوَاهُ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

[AI] I said to Aisha, "Tell me about the most beloved deed to the Messenger of Allah." She said, "The deed that a person continues to do, even if it is small."

قُلْتُ لِعَائِشَةَ حَدِّثِينِي بِأَحَبِّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ الرَّجُلُ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسِيرًا

The most beloved action to Messenger of Allah ﷺ was that whose doer did it continuously and regularly. (Using translation from Bukhārī 6462)

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُهُ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass away until most of his prayers were offered sitting down, except for the obligatory prayers, and the dearest of actions to him were those which were done persistently, even if they were few." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1654)

مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرَ صَلَاتِهِ قَاعِدًا إِلَّا الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ مَا دَاوَمَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَبْدُ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسِيرًا

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ loved the act of charity, as long as it was available to him, even if it was little.

كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا دَامَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass away until most of his prayers were offered sitting down, except for the obligatory prayers, and the dearest of actions to him were those which were done persistently, even if they were few." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1654)

مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرَ صَلَاتِهِ قَاعِدًا غَيْرَ الْفَرِيضَةِ وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ أَدْوَمَهُوَإِنْ قَلَّ

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ said, "The actions which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ loved most were those which were done most constantly."

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُهُ

The most beloved action to Messenger of Allah ﷺ was that whose doer did it continuously and regularly. (Using translation from Bukhārī 6462)

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ «كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُهُ»

[AI] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass away until his most frequent prayer was while he was sitting, and the most beloved action to him was whatever the servant persistently did, even if it was small."

«مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرُ صَلَاتِهِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ وَكَانَ أَحَبَّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ مَا دَاوَمَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَبْدُ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسِيرًا»

[AI] "The most beloved deeds to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ were those done consistently, even if they were few."

«كَانَ أَحَبُّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا دِيمَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ»

[AI] "He (the Prophet Muhammad) did not die until his most preferred form of worship was sitting in prayer, and the action that was most beloved to him was consistency in it, even if it was little."

«مَا مَاتَ حَتَّى كَانَ أَكْثَرُ صَلَاتِهِ قَاعِدًا وَكَانَ أَحَبُّ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ مَا دَاوَمَ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُهُ وَإِنْ قَلَّ» تَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ

[AI] The actions most beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ are those that are consistent, even if they are few.

أَحَبُّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا دِيمَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَلَّ

That which is done continuously, even if it is small. (Using translation from Muslim 782b)

"أحبُّ الأعمالِ إلى اللهِ أدَوَمُها وإن قلَّ".

"أحب العَمَل إلى الله: ما داوم عليه صاحِبُه، وإن قلّ".

"خُذُوا مِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا تُطِيقُونَ؛ فَإنَّ اللَّه لَا يَمَلُّ حتى تَمَلّوا (وَأَحَبُّ الأَعْمَال إِلى اللَّه ما دَاوَمَ عليه صَاحِبُهُ، وَإِنْ قَلَّ).

"عن أم سلمة قَالَتْ: والذي توفى نفسه ما توفي حتى كان أكثر صلاته قاعدًا إلا المكتوبة، وَكَانَ أعْجَب العمل إليه الذي يدوم عليه صاحبه وإن كان يسيرًا".
