Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibnAbd ar-Rahman ibn Awf from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah,may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever hands over twoof any type of property in the way of Allah is called to the Garden,with the words 'O slave of Allah! This is good!' Whoever is among thepeople of prayer, is called from the gate of prayer. Whoever is amongthe people of jihad is called from the gate of jihad. Whoever is amongthe people of sadaqa, is called from the gate of sadaqa. Whoever isamong the people of fasting, is called from the gate of the well-watered. (Bab ar-Rayyan)."Abu Bakr as-Siddiq said,"Messenger of Allah! Is it absolutely necessary that one be calledfrom one of these gates? Can someone be called from all of thesegates?" He said, "Yes, and I hope you are among them ."21.20Acquisition of the Land of Those who Surrender from the People ofDhimma
