Zaynab bint Yazid bin Wasiq al-Atakiyyah (may Allah have mercy on her) narrates that she heard the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In the former nations, when a hundred people bore witness to the goodness of a servant, Paradise became obligatory for him; and fifty people of my Ummah stand in place of their hundred: when they bear witness to the goodness of a servant, Paradise becomes obligatory for him. Zaynab (may Allah have mercy on her) said: A man from the ascetics of the people of Sham named Shahr bin Hawshab (may Allah have mercy on him) asked: O Mother of the Believers! What was the character of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) like? She said: O my son! The Qur'an. Shahr said: That is enough for you; and who can live up to the character of the Qur'an? Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O my son! The one whom Allah grants the ability to do so.
