وَعَن أبي هريرةَ قَالَ: مَرَّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشِعْبٍ فِيهِ عُيَيْنَةٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ عَذْبَةٌ فَأَعْجَبَتْهُ فَقَالَ: لَوِ اعْتَزَلْتُ النَّاسَ فَأَقَمْتُ فِي هَذَا الشِّعْبِ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «لَا تَفْعَلْ فَإِنَّ مَقَامَ أَحَدِكُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ الله أفضل من صلَاته سَبْعِينَ عَامًا أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَيُدْخِلَكُمُ الْجَنَّةَ؟ اغْزُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ مَنْ قَاتَلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَوَاقَ نَاقَةٍ وَجَبت لَهُ الْجنَّة» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, he said: A man from the companions of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, passed by a mountain in which was a spring of fresh water. It pleased him, and he said: If only I isolated myself from the people and resided among this people. This was mentioned to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and he said: “Do not do so, for there is a place where Is there anyone of you who has performed prayers for the sake of God better than seventy years? Would you not like God to forgive you and admit you to Paradise? Fight in the cause of God. Whoever fights in the cause of God and mounts a she-camel, Paradise is guaranteed for him.” Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi
