Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13651

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَقَفَ عَلَى نَاسٍ جُلُوسٍ فَقَالَ : " أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِكُمْ مِنْ شَرِّكُمْ ؟ " . فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ ، فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ : بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . قَالَ : " خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ يُرْجَى خَيْرُهُ وَيُؤْمَنُ شَرُّهُ ، وَشَرُّكُمْ مَنْ لَا يُرْجَى خَيْرُهُ وَلَا يُؤْمَنُ شَرُّهُ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بِإِسْنَادَيْنِ وَرِجَالُ أَحَدِهِمَا رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came and stood by some people who were sitting, and he said: "Shall I tell you about the best of you as opposed to the worst of you?" The people remained silent. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated his words three times, and then one of those present said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best of you is the one from whom good is hoped and from whose evil (people feel) safe; and the worst of you is the one from whom no good is hoped and from whose evil (people do) not feel safe."
Ahmad recorded it with two chains; the narrators of one of them are the narrators of the Sahih.
