2092. It was narrated from Talhah bin 'Ubaidullâh that a Bedouin came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ with unkempt hair and said: "O Messenger of Allâh, tell me what Allâh has enjoined upon me of Salâh." He said: "The five daily prayers, unless you do any more voluntarily." He said: "Tell me what Allâh has enjoined upon me of fasting." He said: "Fasting the month of Ramaḍân, unless you do any more voluntarily." He said: "Tell me what Allâh has enjoined upon me of Zakâh." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ told him of the laws of Islam. He said: "By the One Who has honored you, I will not do anything voluntarily, and I will not do less than that which Allâh has enjoined upon me." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "He will succeed if he is sincere," or, "He will enter Paradise if he is sincere." (Sahîh)
