الترجمة الإنجليزية
Sahl ibn Sa'd al-Sa'idi said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: An expedition in the cause of Allah is better than the world and all that is in it, and an evening journey in the cause of Allah is better than the world and all that is in it, and the space of a whip in Paradise is better than the world and all that is in it.'
