حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَيْرَةَ، عَنْ زَوْجِ دُرَّةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي لَهَبٍ، عَنْ دُرَّةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي لَهَبٍ، قَالَتْ: قَامَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ؟ فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " خَيْرُ النَّاسِ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ وَأَتْقَاهُمْ وَآمَرُهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ، وَأَنْهَاهُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ، وَأَوْصَلُهُمْ لِلرَّحِمِ " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Durrah bint Abi Lahab (may Allah be pleased with her) that once a man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) on the pulpit: "Who is the best among the people?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied: "The one who recites the Qur'an the most, is most God-fearing, enjoins what is right and forbids what is wrong, and maintains the ties of kinship the most."
