بَابٌ فِي فَضْلِ الصَّلَاةِ لِوَقْتِهَا وَأَنَّهَا أَفْضَلُ الْأَعْمَالِ
Chapter on the Virtue of Praying at Its Appointed Time and That It Is the Best of Deeds
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 1053 — on the Virtue of Praying at Its Appointed
عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: ((أَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ الصَّلَاةُ لِوَقْتِهَا وَبِرُّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالْجِهَادُ))
A companion of the Messenger narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was asked which deed is the best. He, peace and blessings be upon him, replied: Performing prayer at its appointed time, being good to parents, and striving (jihad) are the best deeds.
