٤٢. عَنْ أُمِّ فَرْوَةَ رَضِيَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ:
«سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
«أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ؟» قَالَ:
«اَلصَّلَاةُ لِأَوَّلِ وَقْتِهَا».
42. Ummu Farwah (r.a.) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) was asked:
“Which of the actions is the most virtuous?”
The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said:
“–Observing prayer early in its period.” (Tirmidhi, Salah, 13/170; Abu Dawud, Salah, 9/426. Also see Bukhari, Mawaqit, 5; Jihad, 1; Muslim, Iman, 137-139)
