It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not tell you of something by which Allah raises ranks and erases sins? Performing ablution thoroughly despite natural dislike (especially in the cold season), taking many steps towards the mosques, and waiting for the next prayer after performing one prayer—this is like guarding the frontiers.
