Abu Umamah reported, I came to the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) and said,

“Order me to do a deed that will allow me to enter Paradise”

He said:

“Stick to fasting, as there is no equivalent to it.”

Then I came to him again and he said:

“Stick to fasting.”

Ahmad, an-Nasa’i, and al-Hakim
