حَدَّثَنَا شِهَابُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ الْعَوْقِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ”إِنَّ الْكَرِيمَ ابْنَ الْكَرِيمِ ابْنِ الْكَرِيمِ ابْنِ الْكَرِيمِ يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Indeed, the noble son of the noble son of the noble son of the noble is Yusuf, son of Yaqub, son of Ishaq, son of Ibrahim."

Benefits and Issues:
A person's own nobility and that of his forefathers is called lineage (hasab). One in whom every kind of goodness and virtue is gathered is called noble (karim). The greatness and nobility of a family depend on faith (iman) and piety (taqwa); however, if someone possesses family honor and dignity along with faith and piety, then this is, in any case, an additional virtue. Sayyiduna Yusuf (alayhis salam) was one who possessed all these qualities.
