حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِشَامٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الرِّفَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ، وَأُمَّ سَلَمَةَ

أَيُّ الْعَمَلِ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَتَا: مَا دِيمَ عَلَيْهِ، وَإِنْ قَلَّ

“I asked Aishah and Umm Salamah: ‘Which work was dearest to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)?’ They said: ‘That which a person perseveres in, even if the amount of work done is small.’”
