حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ، ارْفَعْ بَصَرَكَ، فَانْظُرْ أَرْفَعَ رَجُلٍ تَرَاهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ. قَالَ: فَنَظَرْتُ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ جَالِسٌ عَلَيْهِ حُلَّةٌ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا. قَالَ: فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ، ارْفَعْ بَصَرَكَ فَانْظُرْ أَوْضَعَ رَجُلٍ تَرَاهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ: فَنَظَرْتُ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ ضَعِيفٌ عَلَيْهِ أَخْلَاقٌ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا. قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَهَذَا أَفْضَلُ عِنْدَ اللهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ قُرَابِ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَ هَذَا

✧ O Abū Dharr, raise your eyes and look at the most elevated man you see in the mosque. He said: So I looked, and there was a man sitting wearing a fine suit. He said: I said: This one. He said: Then he said: O Abū Dharr, raise your eyes and look at the lowliest man you see in the mosque. So I looked, and there was a weak man wearing worn-out clothes. He said: I said: This one. He said: Then the Messenger of God ﷺ said: By the One in whose hand is my soul, this one is better in the sight of God on the Day of Resurrection than an earthful of the like of that one.
