وَعَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: " أَرْبَعٌ إِذَا كُنَّ فِيكَ فَلَا عَلَيْكَ مَا فَاتَكَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا: حِفْظُ أَمَانَةٍ وَصِدْقُ حَدِيثٍ وَحُسْنُ خَلِيقَةٍ وَعِفَّةٌ فِي طُعْمَةٍ «. رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي» شعب الْإِيمَان "
'Abdullah bin 'Amr Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Four characteristics are such that if found in you, it will not matter to you whether the worldly gains accrue or not. They are; (i) honouring a trust (which includes giving rights to Allah and to fellow men or to oneself), (ii) speaking the truth, (iii) possessing a good character, and (iv) observing care in food (by abstaining from the unlawful and from overeating).
