Hadith on Islam: The religion has eight types of good deeds

Hudhayfah reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Islam has eight shares: Islam is a share, prayer is a share, charity is a share, Hajj pilgrimage to the House is a share, fasting is a share, enjoining good is a share, forbidding evil is a share, and jihad in the way of Allah is a share. He has failed who has a share of none.

عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الْإِسْلَامُ ثَمَانِيَةُ أَسْهُمٍ الْإِسْلَامُ سَهْمٌ وَالصَّلَاةُ سَهْمٌ وَالزَّكَاةُ سَهْمٌ وَحَجُّ الْبَيْتِ سَهْمٌ وَالصِّيَامُ سَهْمٌ وَالْأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ سَهْمٌ وَالنَّهْيُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ سَهْمٌ وَالْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ سَهْمٌ وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ لَا سَهْمَ لَهُ
