Forty Virtues for Entering Jannah

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that there are forty kinds of virtues and the highest of them is to lend a milch she-goat to someone in order to benefit from it and then return it. If one practices any of these virtues expecting its reward, they will enter Jannah.

Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'as (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah said, "There are forty kinds of virtue; the uppermost of them is to lend a (milch) she-goat (to someone in order to benefit from it and then return it). He who practices any of these virtues expecting its reward and relying on the truthfulness of the promise made for it, shall enter Jannah". Al-Bukhari.
