26. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allāh and His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ)." The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" He replied, "To participate in Jihād (holy fighting) in Allāh's Cause." The questioner again asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" He replied, "To perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) Mabrūr [which is accepted by Allāh جلاله] and is performed with the intention of seeking Allāh's pleasure only and not to show off and without committing any sin and in accordance with the Sunna (legal ways) of the Prophet ﷺ."

26 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، وَمُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالاَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ: أَيُّ العَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ؟ فَقَالَ: «إِيمَانٌ بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ». قِيلَ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: «الجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ» قِيلَ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: «حَجٌّ مَبْرُورٌ»
