وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ غَدْوَةٌ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the great reward that comes with doing jihad in the way of Allah. It is narrated by Sahl b. Sa'd as-Sa'idi, who was a companion of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, that he said that a journey undertaken in either morning or evening for jihad will be rewarded better than anything else in this world and all it contains. This hadith teaches us to prioritize our actions and to strive for what is most important, which is pleasing Allah through our deeds and actions. We should strive to do good deeds such as helping others, being kind to people, and doing acts of worship like prayer and fasting so we can gain rewards from Allah on Judgment Day. Doing jihad does not necessarily mean going out to fight physically; it can also mean striving against one's own desires or fighting against injustice or oppression wherever it may be found.
