2504. Abū Mūsā said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was asked: 'Which of the Muslims is the most virtuous?' He said: 'The one whom the Muslims are safe from his tongue and his hand.'" (Sahīh) This Hadīth is Sahīh Gharīb [from this route] as a narration of Abū Mūsā.
٢٥٠٤ - حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بُرَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ: «سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ، غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُوسَى.

The word Muslim is derived from Silm, meaning safety and protection. So, a Muslim from whose hands and tongue the believers are safe is a Muslim worth his name. Since the hands and tongue are the main agents of most of our deeds, they have been expressly mentioned in the Hadīth.
