Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 17549

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِخِيَارِكُمْ ؟ " . قَالُوا : بَلَى . قَالَ : " خِيَارُكُمْ أَحَاسِنُكُمْ أَخْلَاقًا ، وَأَطْوَلُكُمْ أَعْمَارًا " .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ غَيْرَ قَوْلِهِ : " أَطْوَلُكُمْ أَعْمَارًا " . رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ مُبَارَكِ بْنِ فَضَالَةَ ، وَقَدْ وُثِّقَ .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not tell you about the best of you?" The people said: Yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best of you are those with the finest character and the longest lives." Allamah al-Haythami says: I say:
Al-Tirmidhi recorded it, except that he did not record the words: "the longest lives."
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Mubarak bin Fadalah, and he has been declared trustworthy.
