Abu Umamah Sudaiy bin `Ajlan Al-Bahili (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) 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 Allahs 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].
Commentary:
This Hadith mentions the merits of the following: 1. Weeping out of fear of Allah. 2. The blood which flows in the way of Allah. 3. The marks of injuries which are left on the bodies of those who take part in Jihad. 4. The marks of wounds received in the performance of obligations.
The Ahadith on the subject are many.
