1648. Sahl bin Sa'd As-Sā'idī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Going out in the morning in the cause of Allāh is better than the world and what is in it. And the place (the size) of a whip in Paradise is better than the world and what is in it." (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Hurairah, Ibn 'Abbās, Abū Ayyūb, and Anas. This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
١٦٤٨ - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْعَطَّافُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «غَدْوَةٌ» فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا، وَمَوْضِعُ سَوْطٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَأَبِي أَيُّوبَ، وَأَنَسٍ. وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Jihād is such a prized deed before Allāh, that going out in the morning or evening just for a little while in the cause of Allāh has merit that nothing, not even giving the whole world in charity, shall equal it in merit. Similarly, even getting the narrowest space for one's abode in Paradise is worth more than the entire world and all that it contains.
