1988 5 May 6 Of all actions, the most sublime is remembrance of God (86) Abu Darda reports the Prophet as asking his companions: “Should I not tell you of the action that is best and most pure in the presence of your Lord; the action which will raise you up in the sight of God, and is better for you than great expenditure of gold and silver; better too than that you should meet your enemies in battle, striking their necks and they striking yours?” “Do tell us,” the, Companions replied, “It is remembrance of God,” said the Prophet.
