2796. Narrated Anas رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : The Prophet ﷺ said, "A single endeavour (of fighting) in Allāh's Cause in the afternoon or in the forenoon is better than all the world and whatever is in it. A place in Paradise as small as the bow or lash of one of you is better than all the world and whatever is in it. And if a woman (Hūr etc.) from Paradise appeared to the people of the earth, she would fill the space between heaven and the earth with light and pleasant scent ; and her headcover is better than the world and whatever is in it."

Arabic text

2796 - قَالَ: وَسَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَرَوْحَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، أَوْ غَدْوَةٌ، خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا، وَلَقَابُ قَوْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ مِنَ الجَنَّةِ، أَوْ مَوْضِعُ قِيدٍ - يَعْنِي سَوْطَهُ - خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا، وَلَوْ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ اطَّلَعَتْ إِلَى أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ لَأَضَاءَتْ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا، وَلَمَلَأَتْهُ رِيحًا، وَلَنَصِيفُهَا عَلَى رَأْسِهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»
