God's Prophet (a.s) said: “The best of God's worshippers are the ones who perform the obligatory acts, and the most abstinent people are the ones who abstain from the forbidden acts. The most God-fearing man is the one who always tells the truth, whether it be in his favor or against him. The most pious people are the ones who avoid quarrelling, even if they are right. The most hard-working people are the ones who quit committing sins. The noblest people are the most pious ones. The greatest people are the ones who do not interfere in what is not related to them. The most prosperous people are the ones who associate with noble people.”
قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): أعبد الناس من يقيم الفرائض، وأزهد الناس من اجتنب الحرام، وأتقى الناس من قال الحق فيما له وعليه، وأورع الناس من ترك المراء وإن كان محقا، وأشد الناس اجتهادا من ترك الذنوب، وأكرم الناس أتقاهم، وأعظم الناس قدرا من ترك ما لا يعنيه، وأسعد الناس من خالط كرام الناس.
