Sunan Abi Dawud 2494 (Book 15, Hadith 18) #22785
Acts of Security from Allah

SUMMARY: Going out to fight in the path of Allah, going to the mosque, and entering one's house after giving salutations are all acts that bring security from Allah.

Abu Umamat Al Bahili reported the Apostle of Allaahﷺ as saying "There are three persons who are in the security of Allaah, the Exalted". "A man who goes out on an expedition to fight in the path of Allaah, the Exalted, is in the security of Allaah, until He takes him unto Him(ie, he dies) and brings him into Paradise or brings him(alive) with reward and booty he obtains and a man who goes to the mosque is in the security of Allaah, until he takes him unto Him(ie, he dies), and he brings him into Paradise or brings him with reward and spoils he obtains; and a man who enters his house after giving salutation is in the security of Allaah, the Exalted".
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بْنُ عَتِيقٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْهِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَمَاعَةَ - حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ‏ "‏ ثَلاَثَةٌ كُلُّهُمْ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ رَجُلٌ خَرَجَ غَازِيًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَتَوَفَّاهُ فَيُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ أَوْ يَرُدَّهُ بِمَا نَالَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ وَغَنِيمَةٍ وَرَجُلٌ رَاحَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَتَوَفَّاهُ فَيُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ أَوْ يَرُدَّهُ بِمَا نَالَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ وَغَنِيمَةٍ وَرَجُلٌ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ بِسَلاَمٍ فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about three acts that bring security from Allah. The first act is going out on an expedition or Ḥashd in Arabic to fight in the path of Allah or Ḥarb. The second act is going to the mosque or Masjid and the third act is entering one's house after giving salutations or Tahiyyah. All these acts will bring a person security from Allah, which means they will be safe and protected by Him until He takes them unto Him either through death or with reward and booty they obtain. This hadith teaches us that we should strive for good deeds as it brings us closer to God and gives us His protection. It also encourages us to go out on expeditions for His cause, visit mosques regularly, and greet people when we enter our homes as these are all acts of worship that can lead us towards Paradise if done sincerely for His sake alone.
