حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ بَعَجَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَدْرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ خَيْرُ مَعَايِشِ النَّاسِ لَهُمْ،‏‏‏‏ رَجُلٌ مُمْسِكٌ بِعِنَانِ فَرَسِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ وَيَطِيرُ عَلَى مَتْنِهِ،‏‏‏‏ كُلَّمَا سَمِعَ هَيْعَةً أَوْ فَزْعَةً طَارَ عَلَيْهِ إِلَيْهَا،‏‏‏‏ يَبْتَغِي الْمَوْتَ أَوِ الْقَتْلَ،‏‏‏‏ مَظَانَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ وَرَجُلٌ فِي غُنَيْمَةٍ،‏‏‏‏ فِي رَأْسِ شَعَفَةٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الشِّعَافِ،‏‏‏‏ أَوْ بَطْنِ وَادٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأَوْدِيَةِ،‏‏‏‏ يُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ،‏‏‏‏ وَيُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ،‏‏‏‏ وَيَعْبُدُ رَبَّهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْيَقِينُ،‏‏‏‏ لَيْسَ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا فِي خَيْرٍ .

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The best lifestyle is that of a man who holds onto the reins of his horse for the sake of Allah, riding on its back. Every time he hears a commotion he rushes towards it, seeking death wherever he thinks he can find it; and a man who tends sheep at the top of one of these peaks, or in the bottom of one of these valleys, establishing the prayer, paying the charity, and worshipping his Lord until the inevitable (death) comes to him and there is nothing between him and the people except good.”
