Hadith 1071
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: O Abu Sa'id! Whoever is pleased with Allah as his Lord, with Islam as his religion, and with Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as his Prophet, Paradise becomes obligatory for him. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) was astonished and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Please say it again." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) repeated it and then said: There is another deed by which a servant will receive one hundred ranks in Paradise, and the distance between each rank is as great as the distance between the sky and the earth. Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "What is that deed?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Striving in the path of Allah, striving in the path of Allah.
