حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ

قَالَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو حِينَ قَدِمَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ فَذَكَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ فَاحِشًا وَلَا مُتَفَحِّشًا. وَقَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مِنْ خِيَارِكُمْ أَحَاسِنَكُمْ أَخْلَاقًا». قَالَ عُثْمَانُ حِينَ قَدِمَ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ

We went to Abdullah ibn Amr when Mudwiya came to Kufa, and he made a mention of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said: He was never immoderate in his talk and he never reviled others. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) also said: The best amongst you are those who are best in morals. Uthman said: When he came to Kufa along with Muawiyah. (The rest of the hadith is the same).

علی بن مسہر اور معمر ( راشد ) دونوں نے باقی ماندہ اسی سند کے ساتھ ہشام بن عروہ سے اسی کے مانند ر وایت کی ۔

{…} Bana Süveyd b. Saîd b. Saîd rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Alîyyu'bnu Müshir rivayet etti. H. Bize İshâk b. İbrahim ile Abd b. Humeyd dahî rivayet ettiler. Dededilerki. Bize Abdürrazzâk haber verdi. (Dediki): Bize Ma'mer haber verdi. Bu ravîler hep birden Hişâm b. Urve'den bu isnâdda, bu hadîsin mislini rivayet etmişlerdir

What it means

It was not part of the Prophet's character to speak or act indecently, nor would he deliberately do that. Indeed, he was of exemplary good character. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: The best among you in the sight of Allah are those who possess the best manners; in doing good, having a smiling face, refraining from harming others and bearing harm from them, and associating with people in a pleasant manner.

What it teaches

  • A believer is required to keep away from improper speech and reprehensible acts.
  • The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) possessed perfect manners, and he would only do and say what was good.
  • Good manners are an arena of competition among the believers. Whoever surpasses others in this regard is one of the best believers and has the most perfect faith among them.
