حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ الْفَزَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَعْفُورَ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ الْعَيْزَارِ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَقْرَبُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ: «الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى مَوَاقِيتِهَا» قُلْتُ: وَمَاذَا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: «بِرُّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ» قُلْتُ: وَمَاذَا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: «الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ».

I said: Messenger of Allah, which of the deeds (takes one) nearer to Paradise? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Prayer at its proper time, I said: What next, Messenger of Allah? He replied: Kindness to the parents. I said: What next? He replied: Jihad in the cause of Allah.
