30 JAN (HOTD) - What Is Your Opinion About This Man?

Hadith of the Day

Sahl ibne-Sa'd As-Sa'idi Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that once a person passed by Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, (and) he asked someone sitting with him: What do you think of the passer-by? He replied: He is amongst the respected of the society; and by Allah! If he proposes to a woman, he will be married; should he recommend (something), his recommendation will be accepted. Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam remained silent. Then another person passed by, and Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked (the same person again): What is your opinion about this man? He answered: O Rasulallah! He is amongst the poor Muslims; if he proposes (for marriage), it will not be accepted; should he recommend (something), his recommendation will be rejected; and if he speaks, nobody will pay heed. Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: This man (the poor Muslim) is better than a whole world full of the like of the first one. (Bukhari: 6447)
