Jami at-Tirmidhi 2911 (Book 45, Hadith 37) #28559
The Virtue of Two Rak'ah Salat

SUMMARY: Allah listens to the prayers of those who perform two Rak'ah of Salat and rewards them with righteousness.

Narrated Zaid bin Artah: narrated from Abu Umamah, that he Prophet said: "Allah does not listen to anything more virtuous from the worshiper than the two Rak'ah of Salat he performs. And the righteousness spreads over the head of a worshiper as long as he remains in his Salat. And the worshipers shall not draw nearer to Allah, Mighty and Sublime is He, with similar to what came from Him".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ، عَنْ لَيْثِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ مَا أَذِنَ اللَّهُ لِعَبْدٍ فِي شَيْءٍ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يُصَلِّيهِمَا وَإِنَّ الْبِرَّ لَيُذَرُّ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْعَبْدِ مَا دَامَ فِي صَلاَتِهِ وَمَا تَقَرَّبَ الْعِبَادُ إِلَى اللَّهِ بِمِثْلِ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو النَّضْرِ يَعْنِي الْقُرْآنَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ ‏.‏ وَبَكْرُ بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ فِيهِ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ وَتَرَكَهُ فِي آخِرِ أَمْرِهِ ‏. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ مُرْسَلٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the virtue of performing two Rak'ahs in prayer. It is said that Allah listens to the prayers of those who perform two Rak'ahs and rewards them with righteousness. This means that when a person performs two Rak'ahs in prayer, they are rewarded for their devotion and faithfulness to Allah. The hadith also states that the worshiper will not draw nearer to Allah than what comes from Him. This means that no matter how much we pray or worship Allah, we cannot come closer to Him than what He has already given us through His grace and mercy. Therefore it is important for us to be thankful for all that He has given us and strive towards pleasing Him through our actions and deeds.
