Sunan an-Nasai 5035 (Book 47, Hadith 51) #19567
Persistence in Religion

SUMMARY: Allah does not get tired and the most beloved religion to Him is that in which a person persists.

It was narrated from 'Aishah that: The Prophet SAW entered upon her and there was a woman with her. He said: "Who is this?" She said: "So-and-so; she does not sleep"- she mentioned her excessive praying. The Prophet SAW said: "Keep quiet. You should do what you are able to, for by Allah, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, does not get tired. The most beloved religion to Him is that in which a person persists".
أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنْ يَحْيَى وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَعِنْدَهَا امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَ مَنْ هَذِهِ قَالَتْ فُلَانَةُ لَا تَنَامُ تَذْكُرُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا فَقَالَ مَهْ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ الْعَمَلِ مَا تُطِيقُونَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا يَمَلُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَتَّى تَمَلُّوا وَكَانَ أَحَبَّ الدِّينِ إِلَيْهِ مَا دَامَ عَلَيْهِ صَاحِبُهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Strive to be consistent with your religious practices

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of persistence in religion. It was narrated by 'Aishah, who was a wife of Prophet Muhammad, that she was with another woman when the Prophet entered her home. The woman mentioned her excessive praying and the Prophet said to keep quiet as Allah does not get tired and He loves it when people persist in their religious practices. This hadith teaches us that we should strive to be consistent with our religious practices even if we cannot do them excessively as this is what pleases Allah most. We should also remember that no matter how much effort we put into our religious practices, it will never tire out or exhaust God because He is infinite and all-powerful.
