حَدَّثَنَا هَيْثَمٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ يَعْنِي الصَّنْعَانِيَّ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَقَفَ عَلَى نَاسٍ جُلُوسٍ فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِكُمْ مِنْ شَرِّكُمْ ؟ فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ، فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: " خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ يُرْجَى خَيْرُهُ وَيُؤْمَنُ شَرُّهُ، وَشَرُّكُمْ مَنْ لَا يُرْجَى خَيْرُهُ وَلَا يُؤْمَنُ شَرُّهُ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ stood over some people who were sitting and said: 'Shall I tell you who is the best of you from the worst of you?' The people remained silent, so he repeated it three times. Then a man from the group said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'The best of you is one from whose good is hoped and whose evil is safe, and the worst of you is one from whose good is not hoped and whose evil is not safe.'
