وَعَنْ عُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ
رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «رِبَاطُ يَوْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ يَوْمٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ مِنَ الْمَنَازِلِ»
Uthman reported God’s Messenger as saying, “A day on the frontier in God’s path is better than a thousand days in any other place.” Tirmidhi and Nasai transmitted it.
