Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 17542 — a man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ

حَدَّثَنَا الْمِقْدَامُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، ثنا أَسَدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، ثنا زَبَّانُ بْنُ فَايِدٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ مُعَاذِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ: أَيُّ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ أَعْظَمُ أَجْرًا؟ قَالَ: «أَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلَّهِ ذِكْرًا» ، قَالَ: وَأَيُّ الصَّائِمِينَ أَعْظَمُ لِلَّهِ أَجْرًا؟ قَالَ: «أَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلَّهِ ذِكْرًا» ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الصَّلَاةَ وَالزَّكَاةَ وَالْحَجَّ وَالصَّدَقَةَ، كُلُّ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «أَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلَّهِ ذِكْرًا» ، فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ لِعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُما: يَا أَبَا حَفْصٍ ذَهَبَ الذَّاكِرُونَ اللهَ بِكُلِّ خَيْرٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَجَلْ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Anas al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): Which of the mujahidin has the greatest reward? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one of them who remembers Allah the most." He asked: And which of those who fast has the greatest reward with Allah? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one of them who remembers Allah the most." Then he mentioned prayer, zakah, Hajj and charity, and each time the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) kept saying: "The one of them who remembers Allah the most." So Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): O Abu Hafs! Those who remember Allah have carried off all the good. And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, indeed."
