6035. Narrated Masrūq: We were sitting with 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr who was narrating to us (Hadith): He said, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was neither a Fāḥish(2) nor a Mutafahhish(3), and he used to say, 'The best among you are the best in character (having good manners).'"
6035 - حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي شَقِيقٌ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا جُلُوسًا مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، يُحَدِّثُنَا، إِذْ قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاحِشًا وَلاَ مُتَفَحِّشًا، وَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ خِيَارَكُمْ أَحَاسِنُكُمْ أَخْلاَقًا»
