Sunan Ibn Majah 3790 (Book 33, Hadith 134) #33144
The Power of Dhikr

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) taught that the best of deeds and most pleasing to Allah is remembering Him through Dhikr.

It was narrated from Abu Darda that the Prophet said: "Shall I not tell you of the best of your deeds, the most pleasing to your Sovereign, those that raise you most in status, that are better than your gold and silver, or meeting you enemy (in battle) and you strike their necks and they strike your necks?" They said: " WHat is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Remembering Allah(Dhikr)".
