“Which of the people is best?”


Abdullah ibn Amr reported: It was said to the Messenger of Allah, “Which of the people is best?” He صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Everyone who is pure of heart and truthful in speech.” They said, “Truthful in speech we know, but what is a pure heart?” He said, “It is a heart that fears Allah and is clean. There is no sin in it and neither aggression, rancor, or envy. ”
[Sunan ibn Majah, Book 37, Number 4216, Grade: Sahih]
Book of Az-Zuhd (Asceticism), Chapter: Caution and God-fearingness
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ  قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ كُلُّ مَخْمُومِ الْقَلْبِ صَدُوقِ اللِّسَانِ قَالُوا صَدُوقُ اللِّسَانِ نَعْرِفُهُ فَمَا مَخْمُومُ الْقَلْبِ قَالَ هُوَ التَّقِيُّ النَّقِيُّ لَا إِثْمَ فِيهِ وَلَا بَغْيَ وَلَا غِلَّ وَلَا حَسَدَ
