He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, encouraged them to perform continuous deeds even if they were little:
‘Aa’ishah narrated
that the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “The dearest deeds to Allah are those which are continuous, even if they were little.”
Al-Qaasim ibn Muhammad (a Follower belonging to the generation succeeding the Companions) said: “Whenever ‘Aa’ishah performed a deed, she would never stop performing it.
Ibn Al-Jawzi (a scholar) said: “Allah The Almighty loves continuous deeds because of two things; first, is that stopping a deed after having performed it is like abandoning it. Second, is that one who performs a deed continuously is like a servant who continuously serves his master. The one who always stands by the door of his master for some time during the day is not like one who stands by the door a full day and then leaves the place.
