5031. Abû Suhail narrated from his father, that he heard Ṭalḥah bin 'Ubaidullâh say: "A man from Najd with unkempt hair came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ; he was speaking loudly but his speech could not be understood until he came close. He was asking about Islam. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Five prayers every day and night.' He said: 'Do I have to do any more than that?' He said: 'No, not unless you do it voluntarily.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Fasting the month of Ramaḍân.' He said: 'Do I have to do any more than that?' He said: 'No, not unless you do it voluntarily.' Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ told him about Zakâh. He said: 'Do I have to do any more than that?' He said: 'No, not unless you do it voluntarily.' The man left saying, 'I will not do any more than that or any less.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'He will succeed, if he is telling the truth.'" (Sahîh)
