Virtue is only for the one who is superior in religion
Hadith 65
وَبِهَذَا، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: اسْتَبَّ رَجُلَانِ فَعَيَّرَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ بِأُمِّهِ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَا الرَّجُلَ، فَقَالَ: ((أَعَيَّرْتَهُ بِأُمِّهِ؟)) فَأَعَادَ ذَلِكَ مِرَارًا، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، اسْتَغْفِرِ اللَّهَ لِمَا قُلْتُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ فَانْظُرْ إِلَى الْمَلَإِ)) ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى مَنْ حَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: ((مَا أَنْتَ بِأَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَحْمَرَ وَأَسْوَدَ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ فَضْلٌ فِي الدِّينِ)).
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: Two men were abusing each other, and one of them taunted the other regarding his mother. The matter reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so he called that man and said: "Did you taunt him regarding his mother?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this statement several times. The man said: O Messenger of Allah! I seek forgiveness from Allah for what I have said. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Raise your head! And look towards this group." He looked at the people around the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet said: "You are not superior to any of these red or black people; superiority is only for the one who is superior in religion."
