Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Protective zeal is of two kinds: Allah Almighty loves one kind and Allah Almighty dislikes the other. Zeal regarding something suspicious, Allah Almighty loves; and zeal in a situation other than suspicion, Allah Almighty dislikes. And swaggering is of two kinds: Allah Almighty loves one of them and Allah Almighty dislikes the other kind. When a man swaggers while giving charity, Allah Almighty loves it; and when a man swaggers out of arrogance, Allah Almighty dislikes it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "There are three kinds of people whose supplication is answered: the father, the traveller and the oppressed." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: After this he mentioned the complete hadith.
Imam al-Tabarani recorded this narration, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Abdullah bin Zayd al-Azraq, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).
