"لَيسَ شَيْءٌ أحبَّ إِلى الله مِنْ قَطْرَتَينِ، وَأثَرَينِ، قَطْرَةُ دُمُوعٍ من خَشْيَةِ الله، وَقَطْرَةُ دَمٍ تُهْرَاقُ في سَبِيلِ الله، وَأمَّا الأَثَرَانِ: فَأَثَرٌ في سبيل الله، وَأَثَرٌ في فَرِيضَةٍ مِن فَرَائِضِ الله".

As for the two traces: A trace resulting in Allah's cause, and and a trace resulting from one of the duties that Allah made obligatory."
