24. Jihād
٢٤۔ كتاب الجهاد
“May Allah have mercy on the one who keeps watch over the troops.”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ حَارِسَ الْحَرَسِ
I heard Anas bin Malik saying: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “Standing guard one night in the cause of Allah is better than a man fasting and praying, among his family, for a thousand years. The year is three hundred and sixty days and a day is like a thousand years.”
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ حَرْسُ لَيْلَةٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صِيَامِ رَجُلٍ وَقِيَامِهِ فِي أَهْلِهِ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ السَّنَةُ ثَلاَثُمِائَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ يَوْمًا وَالْيَوْمُ كَأَلْفِ سَنَةٍ
“I advise you to fear Allah and to say the Takbir (Allahu Akbar) in every high place.”
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ
