حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الْمُؤْمِنُ غِرٌّ كَرِيمٌ ، وَالْفَاجِرُ خِبٌّ لَئِيمٌ " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:` "The believer is naively noble and the stingy person is deceitfully treacherous."

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Explanation:
1:
That is, due to his nobility and simplicity, a believer does not become greedy for worldly benefit, even considering it to be a benefit; rather, at times, he is deceived and has to bear loss because of it. In contrast, a wicked (fajir) person deceives others and causes them harm, which is evidence of his vile character.
