Narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: O people! Come quickly, I am also going to be quick, so the people gathered at an early time. Then he said: O people! I am going to narrate to you a hadith such that since I heard it from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), until today I have not spoken about it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, standing guard for one day in the way of Allah is better than a thousand days of worship. So let a man stand guard wherever he wishes. Have I conveyed this message to you? The people said: Yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Bear witness.
