The hadith “(the most virtuous deeds are the most difficult”(Arabic: أفضل الأعمال أحمزها) is transmitted mursal (a hadith one or more transmitters of which are left out or omitted)in Imāmiyya sources; it has practical fame and has been cited in chapters pertaining to devotional acts. The aim of the present study seeks to answer two questions. First, can the aforementioned hadith be regarded as a jurisprudential maxim? Second, what is its relation to the two principles of negation of hardship (nafī al‑haraj) and negation of harm (nafī al‑ḍarar)? Despite the mentioned hadith adduced it has not yet been examined as an independent legal maxim, and the originality of this research lies in its attempt to normativize it. Through a library-based research and utilizing a descriptive‑analytical ijtihādī method, the findings indicate that the practical fame of the hadith compensates its weakness in its chain of transmission, and like jurisprudential(legal) maxim in various devotional chapters to prove the recommended status of arduous acts of worship followed the divine reward for preparatory acts that precede obligatory by themselves. The maxim may, also, be employed to support the desirability of acts performed under hardship because the principle of negation of hardship is a grace giving by God: the lawgiver has only relieved the servants from the obligation of performing hardship acts of worship but does not negate their validity. But the maxim cannot be invoked to prove the validity or desirability of devotional acts following harm, since negative harm that prohibited by the lawgiver cannot be a means of drawing one nearer to God.
