Narrated/Authority of Al-Bara
A man whose face was covered with an iron mask (i.e. clad in armour) came to the Prophet (SAW) and said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first? "The Prophet (SAW) said, "Embrace Islam first and then fight." So he embraced Islam, and was martyred. Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, A Little work, but a great reward." [He did very little (after embracing Islam), but he will be rewarded in abundance]."
