Hadith text

Narrated 'Aisha: Once the Prophet (ﷺ) came while a woman was sitting with me. He said, "Who is she?" I replied, "She is so and so," and told him about her (excessive) praying. He said disapprovingly, "Do (good) deeds which is within your capacity (without being overtaxed) as Allah does not get tired (of giving rewards) but (surely) you will get tired and the best deed (act of Worship) in the sight of Allah is that which is done regularly

Ayesha (رضی اللہ عنہا) farmati hain ke Nabi (ﷺ) tashreef laaye jabke ek aurat mere paas baithi thi. Aap ne pucha: "Yeh kaun hai?" Maine kaha: "Falaan aurat," aur unki (zyada) namaz ka zikar kiya. Aap ne napasandidgi se farmaya: "Utne hi amal karo jitni tumhari taaqat ho, kyunke Allah nahi thakta (sawaab dete-dete) magar tum zaroor thak jaoge. Aur Allah ke nazdeek behtareen amal wo hai jo hamesha kiya jaye, chahe kam hi ho."
