Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: Once a man reviled Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting there. the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was amazed and began to smile. When the man increased in reviling Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) answered back some of what he said, whereupon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) became angry and stood up. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came to him and said: "O Messenger of Allah! That man was reviling me while you remained seated, but when I answered one of his remarks, you became angry and stood up?" the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There was an angel with you who was answering on your behalf; when you answered his remark, Satan came in between, and I could not sit with Satan." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Abu Bakr! There are three things, all of which are true: whenever a servant is wronged in some way and he leaves it to Allah, Allah Almighty, because of it, honours that person with His help; whenever a person opens a door of giving, intending by it to keep ties of kinship, Allah Almighty increases his wealth because of it; and whenever a person opens a door of begging, intending by it to increase his wealth, Allah Almighty, because of it, increases his scarcity."

وَعَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " مَنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيهِ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ فَلَا يَجْنِي مِنْ عَمَلِهِ : تَقْوًى تَحْجِزُهُ عَنْ مَعَاصِي اللَّهِ ، أَوْ حِلْمٌ يَكُفُّ بِهِ سَفِيهًا ، أَوْ خُلُقٌ يَعِيشُ بِهِ فِي النَّاسِ " . وَأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " مَنْ كَانَ فِيهِ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ ، وَزَوَّجَهُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْحُورِ الْعِينِ : مَنْ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أَمَانَةٌ خَفِيَّةٌ شَهِيَّةٌ فَأَدَّاهَا مَخَافَةَ اللَّهِ ، أَوْ رَجُلٌ عَفَا عَنْ قَاتِلِهِ ، أَوْ رَجُلٌ قَرَأَ : ( قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ) دُبُرَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ عَنْ شَيْخِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِرْقٍ ، وَضَعَّفَهُ الذَّهَبِيُّ .
Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever does not have one of three things in him will not reap anything from his deeds: piety that keeps him away from disobeying Allah Almighty, or forbearance with which he restrains a foolish person, or good character with which he lives among people." the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "Whoever has one of three things in him, Allah Almighty will marry him to one of the wide-eyed maidens (hur al-'in): whoever has a hidden trust that he craves and returns it out of fear of Allah Almighty; or one who forgives his killer (forgoing retaliation); or one who recites Surah al-Ikhlas after every prayer."
