حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ الزُّبَيْدِيِّ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ فَقَالَ: رَجُلٌ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ بِمَالِهِ وَنَفْسِهِ ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَنْ ؟ قَالَ: مُؤْمِنٌ فِي شِعْبٍ مِنَ الشِّعَابِ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ رَبَّهُ ، وَيَدَعُ النَّاسَ مِنْ شَرِّهِ.
It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that a man came to the Prophet (s.a.w) and said: "Which of the people is best?" He said: "A man who strives in Jihad in the cause of Allah with his wealth and his self." He said: "Then who?" He said: "A believer in a mountain pass who worships Allah his Lord, and spares the people from his evil."
