Riyad as-Salihin: Book 0, Hadith 550

‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘as (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “There are forty kinds of virtue, the highest of which is to gift a (milch) she goat. He who practises any of these virtues, expecting its reward (from Allah) and believing on the verity of the promise made for it, will enter Jannah.”.

وعنه قال‏:‏ قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم “أربعون خصلة أعلاها منيحة العنز ما من عامل يعمل بخصلة منها رجاء ثوابها وتصديق موعودها إلا أدخله الله تعالى بها الجنة” ‏(‏‏(‏رواه البخاري‏.‏ وقد سبق بيان هذا الحديث فى باب بيان كثرة طرق الخير‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
