It has been narrated on the authority of Salman who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) say: Keeping watch for a day and a night is better (in point of reward) than fasting for a whole month and standing in prayer every night. If a person dies (while, performing this duty), his (meritorious) activity will continue and he will go on receiving his reward for it perpetually and will be saved from the torture of the grave.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بَهْرَامَ الدَّارِمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ السِّمْطِ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «رِبَاطُ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صِيَامِ شَهْرٍ وَقِيَامِهِ، وَإِنْ مَاتَ جَرَى عَلَيْهِ عَمَلُهُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَعْمَلُهُ، وَأُجْرِيَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقُهُ، وَأَمِنَ الْفَتَّانَ»،
  لیث بن سعد نے ہمیں ایوب بن موسیٰ سے حدیث بیان کی ، انہوں نے مکحول سے ، انہوں نے شرجیل بن سمط سے ، انہوں نے سلمان رضی اللہ عنہ سے روایت کی ، کہا : میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو یہ فرماتے ہوئے سنا : " ایک دن اور ایک رات سرحد پر پہرپ دینا ، ایک ماہ کے روزوں اور قیام سے بہتر ہے اور اگر ( پہرہ دینے والا ) فوت ہو گیا تو اس کا وہ عمل جو وہ کر رہا تھا ، ( آئندہ بھی ) جاری رہے گا ، اس کے لیے اس کا رزق جاری کیا جائے گا اور وہ ( قبر میں سوالات کر کے ) امتحان لینے والے سے محفوظ رہے گا ۔ "
