Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A person does no deed that saves him from the punishment of Allah more than the remembrance of Allah." The people submitted: Not even jihad in the path of Allah? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Not even jihad, except in the case where a man keeps striking with his sword until it (the sword) breaks." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times.
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
