hadith 1104
The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Three qualities, when present in an individual, will complete his faith: a man who does not fear the reproach of an admonisher for the sake of Allah, who never shows off in any of his actions, and who when faced with two matters, one for this world and the other for the Hereafter, he chooses the matter of the Hereafter over the world.
رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) : ثلاثةٌ مَن كُنَّ فيهِ يَسْتَكمِلُ إيمانُهُ : رجُلٌ لا يَخافُ في اللّهِ لَوْمةَ لائمٍ ، ولا يُرائي بشَيءٍ مِن عَمَلِهِ ، وإذا عَرَضَ علَيهِ أمْرانِ أحدُهُما للدُّنيا والآخَرُ للآخِرَةِ ، اخْتارَ أمرَ الآخِرَةِ علَى الدُّنيا.

hadith 1105
The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘A servants faith is incomplete until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself, and until he fears Allah both in times of jesting as well as seriousness.
رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) : لا يَسْتَكمِلُ عبدٌ الإيمانَ حتّى يُحِبَّ لأخيهِ ما يُحِبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ ، وحتّى يَخافَ اللّهَ في مِزاحِهِ وجِدِّهِ.

hadith 1106
The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘A servants faith in Allah is not complete until he has five attributes in him: complete reliance upon Allah, entrusting [his affairs] to Allah, submission to Allahs will, contentment with Allahs decree, and patience in Allahs tribulations. Certainly one who loves for the sake of Allah, hates for the sake of Allah, gives for the sake of Allah, and withholds for the sake of Allah has in fact completed faith.
رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) : لا يُكْمِلُ عبدٌ الإيمانَ باللّهِ حتّى يكونَ فيه خَمْسُ خِصالٍ : التّوكّلُ علَى اللّهِ ، والتّفْويضُ إلَى اللّهِ ، والتَّسْليمُ لأمرِ اللّهِ ، والرِّضا بِقَضاءِ اللّهِ ، والصّبرُ على بَلاءِ اللّهِ . إنّه مَن أحَبَّ في اللّهِ ، وأبْغَضَ في اللّهِ ، وأعطى للّهِ ، ومَنعَ للّهِ ، فَقدِ اسْتَكْمَلَ الإيمانَ.
