Do the degrees of reward for righteous deeds vary?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Are these degrees equal in terms of reward, namely: the Qur'an, recitation, fighting, and charity?

Answer:
No, the reward varies according to the servant's intention, his sincerity, his truthfulness, and his completion of the deed. It varies. This person prays and this person prays, and the difference between their two prayers is greater than the distance between the East and the West. This person's prayer is one in which he turned to it with full attention, cared for it, humbled himself before Allah in it, and perfected it, while the other has a deficiency in his, so there is a difference between them. And so it is with their fasting, and so it is with their Hajj; they differ.
