Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 20667 — What is mentioned on the virtue

Sayyiduna Sa'id bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah, a single day that one of them (the Companions) spent in jihad in the path of Allah in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), in which his face became covered with dust, is better than the deeds of any one of you, even if he were granted the lifespan of Nuh and spent all of it in worship.
