3146. It was narrated that Shurâhbil bin As-Simṭ said to Ka'b bin Murrah: "O Ka'b! Tell us a Hadîth from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and be careful." He said: "I heard him say: 'Whoever develops one gray hair in Islam, in the cause of Allâh, it will be light for him on the Day of Resurrection.'" He said to him: "Tell us about the Prophet ﷺ and be careful." He said: "I heard him say: 'Shoot, and whoever hits the enemy with an arrow, Allâh will raise him one degree in status thereby.'" Ibn An-Nahhâm said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, what is a degree?' He said: 'It is not like the doorstep of your mother;[1] rather (the distance) between two degrees is (that of) a hundred years.'" (Da'if)
