Jami at-Tirmidhi
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْعَطَّافُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " غَدْوَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا وَمَوْضِعُ سَوْطٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبِي أَيُّوبَ وَأَنَسٍ . وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd As-Sa'idi: That The Messenger Of Allah (ﷺ) Said: "Going Out In The Morning In The Cause Of Allah Is Better That The World And What Is In It. And The Place (The Size) Of A Whip In Paradise Is Better Than The World And What Is In It." [Abu 'Eisa Said:] There Are Narrations On This Topic From Abu Hurairah, Ibn 'Abbas, Abu Ayyub, And Anas. This Hadith Is Hasan Sahih.
