حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَبَّانُ بْنُ فَائِدٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ (٢) بْنِ مُعَاذٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُعَاذٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَفْضَلِ الْإِيمَانِ قَالَ: " أَفْضَلُ الْإِيمَانِ أَنْ تُحِبَّ لِلَّهِ، وَتُبْغِضَ فِي اللهِ، وَتُعْمِلَ لِسَانَكَ فِي ذِكْرِ ". قَالَ: وَمَاذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " وَأَنْ تُحِبَّ لِلنَّاسِ مَا تُحِبُّ لِنَفْسِكَ، وَتَكْرَهَ لَهُمْ مَا تَكْرَهُ لِنَفْسِكَ، وَأَنْ تَقُولَ خَيْرًا أَوْ تَصْمُتَ " (٣)، ،

It is narrated from Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that he asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "What is the most excellent form of faith?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "To love and hate for the sake of Allah, and to keep your tongue busy with the remembrance of Allah." He asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Anything else?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Prefer for people what you prefer for yourself, and dislike for them what you dislike for yourself, and speak good words or remain silent."
