(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ . ح
وَحَجَّاجٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، عَنِ
الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ الْعَيْزَارِ ، قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ : سَمِعْتُ
أَبَا عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيَّ ، وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ : عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا صَاحِبُ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى دَارِ
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، وَمَا سَمَّاهُ لَنَا ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ؟ فَقَالَ : " الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى وَقْتِهَا " قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ : لِوَقْتِهَا ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ أَيٌّ ؟ قَالَ : " ثُمَّ بِرُّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ " ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ أَيٌّ ؟ قَالَ : " ثُمَّ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ " ، وَلَوْ اسْتَزَدْتُهُ لَزَادَنِي .
Abu Amr Shaibani says that the resident of this house narrated this hadith to us, and while saying this, he pointed towards the house of Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and, out of respect, did not mention his name, that once I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Which deed is most beloved to Allah?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Prayer at its proper time." I asked: "After that?" He said: "Good conduct towards parents." I asked: "After that?" He said: "Jihad in the way of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) told me these things, and if I had asked more, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would have answered them as well.
