عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِخَيْرِكُمْ؟)) قَالُوا: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! قَالَ: ((خِيَارُكُمْ أَطْوَلُكُمْ أَعْمَارًا وَأَحْسَنُكُمْ أَعْمَالًا))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Shall I not tell you who among you is the best person? They said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah! He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The best among you are those whose lives are long and whose deeds are good.
