PARADISE FOR THOSE WHO FIGHT IN JIHAD H 1329 "Paradise becomes incumbent for a person who is pleased with Allah as his Lord and with Islam as his religion and with Muhammad as his Messenger, praise and peace be upon him." Abu Sa'id was pleased with this and requested the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, to repeat it. So he repeated it and added: "There is something else by which Allah exalts a worshiper a hundred ranks in Paradise, the distance between any two ranks being the distance between heaven and earth." Abu Sa'id asked, 'What is that, O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him?' He answered, "Fighting in the Way of Allah. Fighting in the Way of Allah." R 1329 Muslim with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Khudri who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
1301- وعن أَبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه : أنَّ رَسولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ، قَالَ : "مَنْ رَضِيَ بِاللهِ رَبّاً ، وَبِالإسْلاَمِ ديناً ، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولاً ، وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الجَنَّةُ" ، فَعَجِبَ لَهَا أَبُو سَعيدٍ ، فَقَالَ : أَعِدْهَا عَلَيَّ يَا رسولَ اللهِ ، فَأَعَادَهَا عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : "وَأُخْرَى يَرْفَعُ اللهُ بِهَا العَبْدَ مِئَةَ دَرَجَةٍ في الجَنَّةِ ، مَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ دَرَجَتَينِ كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأرْضِ" قَالَ : وَمَا هيَ يَا رسول الله ؟ قَالَ : "الجِهَادُ في سَبِيلِ اللهِ ، الجهَادُ في سَبيلِ اللهِ" رواه مسلم .
