أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَشَجُّ بَنِي عَصَرٍ قَالَ
لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ فِيكَ خُلُقَيْنِ يُحِبُّهُمَا اللهُ» قُلْتُ مَا هُمَا؟ قَالَ «الْحِلْمُ وَالْحَيَاءُ» قُلْتُ أَقَدِيمًا أَوْ حَدِيثًا؟ قَالَ «لَا بَلْ قَدِيمًا» قُلْتُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَبَلَنِي عَلَى خَلْقَينِ يُحِبُّهُمَا اللهُ

✧ To the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I said: "Indeed, there are two characteristics in you that Allah loves." I asked: "What are they?" He replied: "Forbearance and modesty." I asked: "Are they ancient or recent?" He said: "No, they are ancient." I said: "Praise be to Allah who has made me have these two characteristics that Allah loves."
