4219 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ الْعَسْقَلَانِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَلَّامُ بْنُ أَبِي مُطِيعٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدَبٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْحَسَبُ الْمَالُ، وَالْكَرَمُ التَّقْوَى»

Commentary
Generally, people give respect on the basis of riches. If a person from a noble family becomes poor then he no longer is respected as he used to be. It is the common practice of people. As a principal, a person should be respected and honored based on his piety. It is the real honor, so in Hereafter one is honored only on the basis of his piety.
