"The best deed is to bring happiness to your believing brother, to pay off his debt, or to feed him bread." It was recorded by al-Aṣbahānī in "al-Targhīb" (214/1) through the route of Aḥmad ibn al-Mubārak al-Ismāʿīlī: Abū Mūsá al-Harawī and Aḥmad ibn Jamīl al-Marwazī said: ʿAmmār ibn Muḥammad al-Thawrī narrated from Muḥammad ibn ʿAmr from Abū Salamah from Abū Hurayrah: that the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) was asked: Which deed is best? He said: To bring... etc. I say: This isnād is good, if Allāh wills, as its narrators are trustworthy and known from the men of al-Tahdhīb except those below ʿAmmār, as al-Khaṭīb translated them in "al-Tārīkh" and others authenticated them except al-Ismāʿīlī, as he did not mention any criticism or endorsement, two trustworthy narrators narrated from him, and he died in al-Raqqah in the year (263). He is considered obscure, but his ḥadīth is accepted, especially in supporting evidence, and one of them has already passed from the ḥadīth of Ibn ʿUmar under number (906). Abū Mūsá al-Harawī's name is Isḥāq ibn Ibrāhīm, and his biography is in "al-Tārīkh" (6/337) and his death was recorded in the year (233). The death of his peer al-Marwazī was recorded in the year (230).

"He used to pray standing [voluntarily, and the door in the direction of the qiblah] [was closed upon him], so I knocked on the door, and he walked to his right or left, opened the door, and then returned to his place." It was recorded by al-Nasāʾī (1/178), Ibn Ḥibbān (530), and al-Bayhaqī (2/265)
