Obligation of Jihad
وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَفْضَلُ الصَّدَقَاتِ ظِلُّ فُسْطَاطٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، وَمَنِيحَةُ خَادِمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، أَوْ طَرُوقَةُ فَحْلٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ((رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: حَدِيثٌ حَسَن صَحِيح)).
Abu Umamah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The best of charities is to provide canopy in the Cause of Allah, to pay wages to a servant in the way of Allah, and to provide a camel in the way of Allah (to be used by a Mujahid)." [At-Tirmidhi].
