Riyad as-Salihin

Abu Umamah Sudaiy bin 'Ajlan Al-Bahili (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Nothing is dearer to Allah than two drops and two marks: A drop of tears shed out of fear of Allah and a drop of blood shed in Allah's way. Regarding the two marks, they are: Marks left in the Cause of Allah and a mark left in observing one of the obligatory act of worship of Allah, the Exalted".

[At-Tirmidhi, who classified it as Hadith Hasan].

Al-'Irbad bin Sariyah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: One day Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) delivered us a very eloquent Khutbah on account of which eyes shed tears and hearts became softened.

[Abu Dawud and At- Tirmidhi].
