Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A man's standing in the row (of battle) in the path of Allah is more virtuous than his worshipping for sixty years."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded this narration in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Imam al-Bazzar also recorded something similar, and his wording is: "The standing of one of you in the row for an hour." Its chain contains a narrator, Abdullah bin Salih, the scribe of al-Layth; Imam Ahmad and others declared him thiqah (trustworthy). The narrators of Imam al-Bazzar are thiqat (trustworthy).
