Jihaad in Allah’s Cause is the pinnacle of Islam and a source of glory for all Muslims. It is a great means to enter Paradise, and manytextual evidence encourage and urge Muslims to partake in Jihaad, and underline the great reward designated for this worshipful act. In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺ highlighted that observing Ribaat (i.e., guarding at frontier outposts in support of Allah's Cause), and guarding Muslims against the disbelievers’ potential assaults for one day, is better than the worldly life and everything therein, and this reward is earned because Ribaat involves putting one’s life on the line to defend Islam and protect Muslims. He ﷺ also underlined that a small place in Paradise, being the (eternal) bliss earned by observing Ribaat, that is as small as a place occupied by the whip of a Mujaahid (i.e., Muslim fighter partaking in Jihaad) is better than the whole worldly life and everything therein, because the worldly life is fleeting and Paradise and the bliss therein, no matter how insignificant it may seem in that simile, are lasting and enduring. Verily, what is lasting is better than what is fleeting, in all respects. The Prophet ﷺ also said that a morning's or an evening's journey which a person travels once in Allah's Cause is better than the worldly life and everything therein. The hadeeth highlights the great virtues of Ribaat in Allah’s Cause. It underlines the insignificance of the (short-lived) worldly life compared to the (everlasting) Hereafter..
