[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The best of people are two men: a man who fights in the cause of Allah until he reaches a place where the enemy is defeated, and a man who lives on the outskirts of the desert, establishing the five daily prayers, fulfilling his obligations, and worshipping his Lord until death comes to him. He then falls prostrate on his knees. Abu Hurairah, did you hear this from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He said, "Yes." So he went to his desert and settled there.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْضَلُ النَّاسِ رَجُلَانِ رَجُلٌ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ حَتَّى يَهْبِطَ مَوْضِعًا يَسُوءُ الْعَدُوَّ وَرَجُلٌ بِنَاحِيَةِ الْبَادِيَةِ يُقِيمُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ وَيُؤَدِّي حَقَّ مَالِهِ وَيَعْبُدُ رَبَّهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْيَقِينُ فَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ قَالَ آنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُهُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَتَى بَادِيَتَهُ فَأَقَامَ بِهَا
