Hadith Never does the son of Adam do any deed that can save him from Allah's punishment more than remembering Allah

عن معاذ بن جبل رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «مَا عَمِلَ ابْنُ آدَمَ عَمَلًا أَنْجَى لَهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ».

Mu‘ādh ibn Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Never does the son of Adam do any deed that can save him from Allah's punishment more than remembering Allah.”

Authentic by Another chain of narrators Ibn Abi Shaybah - At-Tabaraani - Narrated by Ahmad - Maalik

Explanation

Allah has provided his believing servants with the means by which they can attain Paradise and be saved from Hell. One of them is the remembrance of Allah, Glorified and Exalted. The Hadīth points out the virtue of remembering Allah and says that it is one of the greatest means for a servant to be saved from fearful things, both in this worldly life and also in the Hereafter. Remembering Allah is also a reason for attaining salvation from Hell; an advantage that is counted among the greatest advantages of remembering Allah.
