Jihaad is the most rewardable good deed in Islam; it is the pinnacle of Islam, by means of which Allah, Exalted is He, honors Muslims, and empowers the monotheists on earth. In this hadeeth, It was narrated on the authority of Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man went to Allah's Messengerﷺ and asked him about a good deed that was equal to Jihaad in terms of reward and status in the Sight of Allah. The Prophet ﷺ replied, "I do not find such a deed!" This means that there is no better or more rewardable good deed than Jihaad. Afterward, he ﷺ asked him, "Can you, while the Mujaahid (i.e., a Muslim fighter partaking in Jihaad) is on the battlefield, enter your mosque to perform prayers unceasingly and fast without breaking your fast?" The man inquired, "But who can do that?" There is no doubt that none can endure exerting such enormous effort! Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) added, underlining the great merits and rewards of Jihaad, "A Mujaahid is rewarded even for the footsteps of his horse while it wanders about (for grazing) tied to a long rope,” meaning that he earns reward in all situations; whenever he eats, sleeps, sells, and buys what he needs – equal to the reward of the one who unceasingly observes fasting, performs prayer, and recites the Book of Allah (unfailingly), and few people are able to do so! The hadeeth highlights the virtues of Jihaad in the cause of Allah, Exalted is He, and urges Muslims to partake in it..
