HADITH OF THE DAY
REWARD IN ABUNDANCE
Narrated by Al-Bara
A man whose face was covered with an iron mask (i.e. clad in armour) came to the Prophet (Peace & Blessings of Allah upon Him) & said, "O Allah's Messenger! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first? "The Prophet said, "Embrace Islam first & then fight."
So he embraced Islam, & was martyred. Allah's Messenger said, A Little work, but a great reward. "(He did very little (after embracing Islam), but he will be Rewarded in Abundance)."
