2004. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was asked about that for which people are admitted into Paradise the most, so he said: "Taqwā of Allāh, and good character." And he was asked about that for which people are admitted into the Fire the most, and he said: "The mouth and the private parts." (Saḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Saḥīḥ Gharīb. 'Abdullāh bin Idrīs (a narrator) is Ibn Yazīd bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān Al-Awdī.
٢٠٠٤ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ جَدِّي ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَكْثَرِ مَا يُدْخِلُ النَّاسَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ: تَقْوَى اللهِ، وَحُسْنُ الْخُلُقِ». وَسُئِلَ عَنْ أَكْثَرِ مَا يُدْخِلُ النَّاسَ النَّارَ فَقَالَ: الْفَمُ وَالْفَرْجُ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ هُوَ: ابْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَوْدِيُّ.
