A group of bedouins came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Messenger of Allah, the people of our village claim that no deed benefits a person except migration and striving in the path of Allah."The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "Wherever you are, if you worship Allah well, then receive the glad tidings of Paradise."
أتى نفر من أهل البادية إلى رسول الله ﷺ، فقالوا: يا رسول الله، إن أهل قرانا زعموا أنه لا ينفع عمل دون الهجرة، والجهاد في سبيل الله، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: حيث ما كنتم فأحسنتم عبادة الله، فأبشروا بالجنة.

Dulabi narrated it in al-Kuna (2/557) from Ishaq bin Suwayd Ramli, who said, Ibn Abu Uways narrated to us, saying, Yahya bin Umayr Abu Zakariya Bazzaz, the freed slave of Nawfal bin Adi bin Nawfal bin Asad, told me that he heard Saeed bin Abu Saeed Maqburi narrating from his father, from Abu Hurairah, who said, and then he mentioned it.Its chain of transmission is hasan because of Yahya bin Umayr, from whom a group of narrators transmitted, and Ibn Hibban mentioned him among the trustworthy narrators, while Abu Hatim Razi said of him, "His hadith is acceptable." As for Ibn Abu Uways, he is Ismail bin Abdullah bin Uways, about whom there is disagreement. Ahmad and Ibn Main said, "There is no harm in him," while some others declared him daif. He is among those whose hadith is considered hasan when it has a basis, and this hadith is of that kind.
