Mutarrif said: Sayyiduna Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me: Today I will narrate a hadith to you; perhaps after today Allah Almighty will benefit you through it: "Know that the best of the servants of Allah Almighty on the Day of Resurrection will be those who praise much."
Ahmad recorded it as mawquf (a Companion's statement), and it resembles a marfu' (Prophetic) report; its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
