6151. Narrated Al-Haitham bin Abū Sinān that he heard Abū Hurairah in his narration, mentioning that the Prophet ﷺ
said, "A Muslim brother of yours who does not say dirty words." And by that he meant Ibn Rawāḥa, who (in his poetry) said: 'We have Allāh's Messenger with us who recites Allāh's Book (the Noble Qur'ān) in the early morning time. He gave us guidance and light while we were blind and astray, so our hearts are sure that whatever he says, will certainly happen. He does not touch his bed at night, being busy in worshipping Allāh while Al-Mushrikūn (the pagans etc.) are sound asleep in their beds.'
