Hadith 10766

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ , حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ حَسَّانَ يَعْنِي الْعَنْبَرِيَّ , عَنِ الْقَلُوصِ , أَنَّ شِهَابَ بْنَ مُدْلِجٍ نَزَلَ الْبَادِيَةَ ، فَسَابَّ ابْنُهُ رَجُلًا ، فَقَالَ : يَا بْنَ الَّذِي تَعَرَّبَ بِهَذِهِ الْهِجْرَةِ ، فَأَتَى شِهَابٌ الْمَدِينَةَ ، فَلَقِيَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَسَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَفْضَلُ النَّاسِ رَجُلَانِ رَجُلٌ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَهْبِطَ مَوْضِعًا يَسُوءُ الْعَدُوَّ ، وَرَجُلٌ بِنَاحِيَةِ الْبَادِيَةِ يُقِيمُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ ، وَيُؤَدِّي حَقَّ مَالِهِ وَيَعْبُدُ رَبَّهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْيَقِينُ " , فَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ , قَالَ : أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولهُ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ , فَأَتَى بَادِيَتَهُ فَأَقَامَ بِهَا .
Quloos says that Shahab bin Mudlij reached a village and camped there. During this time, his son abused someone. He said, "O son of the person who became an Arab after migration." Then Shahab reached Madinah Munawwarah, where he met Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him). He heard Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among the people, two persons are the most virtuous: one is the person who fights in the way of Allah until he reaches a place that poses a threat to the enemy, and the other is the person who lives on the outskirts of a village, offers the five prayers, pays the due right of his wealth, and continues to worship his Lord until death." Upon hearing this, Shahab knelt on both his knees and said, "O Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), did you hear this hadith yourself from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied, "Yes!" Upon this, Shahab returned to his village and settled there.
