عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ: خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَتَدْرُونَ أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى؟» قَالَ قَائِلٌ: الصَّلَاةُ وَالزَّكَاةُ. وَقَالَ قَائِلٌ: الْجِهَادُ. قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ أَحَبَّ الْأَعْمَالِ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى الْحُبُّ فِي اللَّهِ وَالْبُغْضُ فِي اللَّهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَرَوَى أَبُو دَاوُد الْفَصْل الْأَخير
Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us and said: "Do you know which deeds are most beloved to Allah?" One of the companions said: Prayer, zakat, and another said: Jihad. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The most beloved deed to Allah is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah." (Ahmad) And Abu Dawood narrated the last part. Its chain is weak. Narrated by Ahmad and Abu Dawood.
