Zujajat al-Masabih 1728Volume 1

English

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to Bilal at the time of Fajr prayer: 'O Bilal, tell me about the most hopeful deed you have done in Islam, for I heard the sound of your sandals in front of me in Paradise.' Bilal replied: 'I have not done any deed more hopeful to me than this: I have never performed ablution at any time of the night or day without praying as much as was written for me afterward.'" [Agreed upon by Bukhari and Muslim] In a narration by Tirmidhi: "I have never become impure without performing ablution immediately, and I felt that I owed Allah two rak'ahs." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "It is because of these two."
