Description of three important qualities of a believer
Hadith 955
وَبِهِ قَالَ : وَبِهِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "ثَلاثٌ مَنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيهِ فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي وَلا مِنَ اللَّهِ ، قِيلَ : وَمَا هُنَّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ ، قَالَ : حِلْمٌ يَرُدُّ بِهِ جَهْلُ جَاهِلٍ ، وَحُسْنُ خُلُقٍ يَعِيشُ بِهِ النَّاسُ ، وَوَرَعٌ يَحْجِزُهُ عَنْ مَعَاصِي اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever does not have three qualities cannot be of me, nor does he have any connection with Allah." It was asked: O Messenger of Allah! What are they? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "(1) Courage with which he responds to the ignorance of the ignorant, (2) Good character with which he lives among people, (3) Piety that prevents him from disobeying Allah."
