1449. 'Abdullāh bin Ḥubashī Al-Khath'āmī said that the Prophet ﷺ was asked: "Which of the deeds is the most virtuous?" He replied: "Standing for long periods of time (during prayer)." He was asked: "And which charity is the most virtuous?" He replied: "The efforts (in charity) of one who is destitute." He was asked: "And which type of emigration (Hijrah) is the most virtuous?" He replied: "The one who emigrated (left) what Allāh had prohibited him from." He was asked: "And which type of Jihād is the most virtuous?" He said: "He who performed Jihād (strived) against the pagans with his wealth and life." He was asked: "And what type of martyrdom is the most honorable?" He replied: "He whose blood was spilled, and whose horse's leg was cut off.”(Hasan)

1449 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ: حَدَّثَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ الْأَزْدِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حُبْشِيٍّ الْخَثْعَمِيِّ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ: أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «طُولُ الْقِيَامِ»، قِيلَ: فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «جَهْدُ الْمُقِلِّ»، قِيلَ: فَأَيُّ الْهِجْرَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ»، قِيلَ: فَأَيُّ الْجِهَادِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «مَنْ جَاهَدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِمَالِهِ وَنَفْسِهِ»، قِيلَ: فَأَيُّ الْقَتْلِ أَشْرَفُ؟ قَالَ: «مَنْ أُهَرِيقَ دَمُهُ، وَعُقِرَ جَوَادُهُ»
