حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْغَيْثِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " السَّاعِي عَلَى الأَرْمَلَةِ وَالْمِسْكِينِ كَالْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، أَوِ الْقَائِمِ اللَّيْلَ الصَّائِمِ النَّهَارَ ".
Translation
Yahya ibn Qazaʿah narrated to us: Malik narrated to us, from Thawr ibn Zayd, from Abu al-Ghayth, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “One who strives to provide for a widow and a poor person is like a fighter in the path of God, or like one who stands in prayer at night and fasts during the day.”
