Sahih al-Bukhari 652, 653, 654 (Book 10, Hadith 49) #629
The Rewards of Good Deeds

SUMMARY: Doing good deeds and helping others will be rewarded by Allah.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, "While a man was going on a way, he saw a thorny branch and removed it from the way and Allah became pleased by his action and forgave him for that". Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Five are martyrs: One who dies of plague, one who dies of an Abdominal disease, one who dies of drowning, one who is buried alive (and) dies and one who is killed in Allah's cause". (The Prophet ﷺ further said, "If the people knew the reward for pronouncing the Adhan and for standing in the first row (in the congregational prayer) and found no other way to get it except by drawing lots they would do so, and if they knew the reward of offering the Zuhr prayer early (in its stated time), they would race for it and if they knew the reward for 'Isha' and Fajr prayers in congregation, they would attend them even if they were to crawl.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ السَّمَّانِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ‏"‏ بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ يَمْشِي بِطَرِيقٍ وَجَدَ غُصْنَ شَوْكٍ عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ فَأَخَّرَهُ، فَشَكَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ، فَغَفَرَ لَهُ ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ الشُّهَدَاءُ خَمْسَةٌ الْمَطْعُونُ، وَالْمَبْطُونُ، وَالْغَرِيقُ، وَصَاحِبُ الْهَدْمِ، وَالشَّهِيدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ مَا فِي النِّدَاءِ وَالصَّفِّ الأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَجِدُوا إِلاَّ أَنْ يَسْتَهِمُوا لاَسْتَهَمُوا عَلَيْهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ ‏"‏ وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِي التَّهْجِيرِ لاَسْتَبَقُوا إِلَيْهِ، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِي الْعَتَمَةِ وَالصُّبْحِ لأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the rewards of doing good deeds. It was narrated by Abu Huraira, who said that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that Allah will reward those who do good deeds, such as removing a thorny branch from a path. He also mentioned five types of people who are considered martyrs in Islam - those who die from plague, abdominal disease, drowning, being buried alive and killed in Allah's cause. The Prophet ﷺ also said that if people knew the rewards for performing certain acts of worship such as Adhan and congregational prayer they would draw lots to get it or race for it even if they had to crawl to do so. This hadith teaches us that we should always strive to do good deeds because Allah will reward us for them both in this life and the hereafter.
