Messenger of Allah (swt), peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: 'The most devout of people, is the one who upholds the obligatory acts. The most generous of people, is the one who pays the zakat on his wealth. The most ascetic of people, is the one who avoids what is forbidden. The most God-fearing of people, is the one who speaks the truth, whether it is for or against him. The most just of people, is the one who is pleased for others with what he is pleased for himself and dislikes for them what he dislikes for himself. The wisest of people, is the one who remembers death the most. The most enviable of people, is the one who is under the earth (in the grave) but safe from punishment and hoping for reward. The most heedless of people, is the one who does not learn from the changing states of the world. The greatest in status in this world, is the one who considers the world to have no worth to him. The most knowledgeable of people, is the one who gathers the knowledge of others along with his own. The bravest of people, is the one who overcomes his desires. The most valuable of people, is the one with the most knowledge. The least valuable of people, is the one with the least knowledge. The least delighted of people, is the envious person. The least comfortable of people, is the miser. The stingiest of people, is the one who withholds what Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, has made obligatory.'" Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as): "The person most entitled to the truth is the one most knowledgeable of it. The least respected among people, is the sinner. The least loyal among people, is the servant. The one with the fewest friends, is the king. The poorest of people, is the one consumed by greed. The richest of people, is the one who is not enslaved by desire. The best in faith among people, is the one with the best character. The most honorable of people, is the most God-conscious. The greatest in status among people, is the one who abandons what does not concern him. The most pious of people, is the one who avoids argumentation, even when he is right. The least dignified among people, is the liar. The most wretched of people, are kings. The most hated of people, is the arrogant. The most diligent of people, is the one who abandons sins. The wisest of people, is the one who avoids ignorant people. The happiest of people, is the one who associates with honorable people. The most intelligent of people, is the one who deals most patiently with people. The most deserving of suspicion, is the one who keeps the company of suspicious people. The most rebellious of people, is the one who kills someone who did not kill him or strikes someone who did not strike him. The person most worthy of forgiveness, is the one most capable of punishment. The most deserving of blame, is the foolish backbiter. The most humiliated of people, is the one who humiliates others. The most composed of people, is the one who suppresses anger the most. The most righteous of people, is the one who is most beneficial to others. And the best of people, is the one from whom people benefit."
