What is mentioned in regards to purification

Muslim b. Ibrāhīm > Abān > Ibn Yazīd > Yaḥyá b. Abū Kathīr > Zayd > Abū Sallām > Abū Mālik al-Ashʿarī > Nabī Allāh ﷺ

The Messenger of Allah said: "Performing ablution properly is half of faith, saying Al-Hamdu Lillah fills the Scale (of good deeds), saying Subhan-Allah and Allahu Akbar fills the heavens and the earth, prayer is light, Zakat is proof, patience is brightness and the Qur'an is proof for you or against you. Every person goes out in the morning to sell his soul, so he either frees it or destroys it.'" – Sound Chain

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهُ ﷺ قَالَ الطُّهُورُ شَطْرُ الْإِيمَانِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ يَمْلَأُ الْمِيزَانَ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ يَمْلَآَنِ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَالصَّلَاةُ نُورٌ وَالصَّدَقَةُ بُرْهَانٌ وَالْوُضُوءُ ضِيَاءٌ وَالْقُرْآنُ حُجَّةٌ لَكَ أَوْ عَلَيْكَ وَكُلُّ النَّاسِ يَغْدُو فَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُعْتِقُهَا أَوْ مُوبِقُهَا – إسناده صحيح

Saʿīd b. ʿĀmir > Shuʿbah > Abū Isḥāq > Juray al-Nahdī > a man from Banī Sulaym

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed their hands in my hand or he said he placed them in his hand and his hand in my hand, and he said, "Glory be to Allah, half of the scale, and praise be to Allah, it fills the scale. Allah is the Greatest, it fills what is between the heavens and the earth. Wudu' is half of faith and fasting is half of patience." – Fair Chain

عَقَدَهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي يَدِي أَوْ قَالَ عَقَدَهُنَّ فِي يَدِهِ وَيَدُهُ فِي يَدِي «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ نِصْفُ الْمِيزَانَ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ يَمْلَأُ الميزانَ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ يَمْلَأُ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَالْوُضُوءُ نِصْفُ الْإِيمَانِ وَالصَّوْمُ نِصْفُ الصَّبْرِ» – إسناده جيد

From Thawban, the servant of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who said that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Stay steadfast and you will not be able to count [the rewards] and know that the best of your deeds is prayer." Another narration states, "Indeed, prayer is among the best of your deeds." And another narration states, "No one will maintain their ablution except a believer." – Sound Chain

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ وَالْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ

عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اسْتَقِيمُوا وَلَنْ تُحْصُوا وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ خَيْرَ أَعْمَالِكُمُ الصَّلَاةُ» وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ «إِنَّ مِنْ خَيْرِ أَعْمَالِكُمُ الصَّلَاةَ» «وَلَنْ يُحَافِظَ عَلَى الْوُضُوءِ إِلَّا مُؤْمِنٌ» – إسناده صحيح
