Silsilah as-Sahihah 2539 — Qualities of the best people

It is narrated from Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Which people are the best?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Everyone who is pure of heart and truthful in speech." The companions said: "We know the one who is truthful in speech, but what is meant by pure of heart?" He said: "A heart that fears Allah and is clean, in which there is no sin, rebellion, treachery, or envy."
