4216. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr said: "It was said to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ: 'Which of the people is best?' He said: 'Everyone who is pure of heart and sincere of speech.' They said: 'Sincere of speech, we know what this is, but what is pure of heart?' He said: 'It is (the heart) that is pious and pure, with no sin, injustice, rancor or envy in it.'" (Sahih)

4216 - هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُغِيثُ بْنُ سُمَيٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «كُلُّ مَخْمُومِ الْقَلْبِ، صَدُوقِ اللِّسَانِ» ، قَالُوا: صَدُوقُ اللِّسَانِ، نَعْرِفُهُ، فَمَا مَخْمُومُ الْقَلْبِ؟ قَالَ: «هُوَ التَّقِيُّ النَّقِيُّ، لَا إِثْمَ فِيهِ، وَلَا بَغْيَ، وَلَا غِلَّ، وَلَا حَسَدَ» حَدَّثَنَا
