Narrater: (Abu Huraira) Hadidth No: (44)

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.''
