Ibn an-Nuhaas (رحمه الله)
Jihad Is The Best Deed After Salah And Being Dutiful Towards One's Parents
The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم was asked what is the most beloved act of worship in the eyes of Allah? He said, "Praying on time," I said, "Then what?" He said, "Being dutiful towards your parents," I said and "then what?" He said, "Jihad in the path of Allah" [101]
Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (رضي الله عنهما) used to consider jihad to be the best of all deeds after Salah. [102]
