وَعَنْ دُرَّةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي لَهَبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ قَامَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَيْرُ النَّاسِ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ وَأَتْقَاهُمْ وَآمَرُهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَأَنْهَاهُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَأَوْصَلُهُمْ لِلرَّحِمِ
It is narrated from Sayyida Durrah bint Abi Lahab (may Allah be pleased with her), she says that a man stood up and came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was on the pulpit, and he said: O Messenger of Allah! Which people are the best? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best among the people is the one who recites the most, fears the most, commands the most good, forbids the most evil, and maintains the most ties of kinship.
