Volume 4, Book 52, Number 44:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, "Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad (in reward)."
He replied, "I do not find such a deed." Then he added, "Can you, while the Muslim fighter is in the
battle-field, enter your mosque to perform prayers without cease and fast and never break your
fast?" The man said, "But who can do that?" Abu- Huraira added, "The Mujahid (i.e. Muslim fighter)
is rewarded even for the footsteps of his horse while it wanders bout (for grazing) tied in a long
rope."
