Tirmidhi Book 49, Hadith 3802
حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو زُمَيْلٍ هُوَ سِمَاكُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الْحَنَفِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَا أَظَلَّتِ الْخَضْرَاءُ، وَلَا أَقَلَّتِ الْغَبْرَاءُ مِنْ ذِي لَهْجَةٍ أَصْدَقَ، وَلَا أَوْفَى مِنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ شِبْهِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: كَالْحَاسِدِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفَتَعْرِفُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَاعْرِفُوهُ لَهُ . قَالَ: هَذَا حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ، وَقَدْ رَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ، فَقَالَ: أَبُو ذَرٍّ يَمْشِي فِي الْأَرْضِ بِزُهْدِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام.
Narrated Abu Dharr: that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: There is no one more truthful in speech, nor in fulfilling of promises, that sky has covered and the earth has carried, than Abu Dharr, the likeness of 'Eisa bin Mariam. So 'Umar bin Al-Khattab said, as if out of envy: So do you acknowledge that for him, O Messenger of Allah? He said: Yes, so acknowledge it.

Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
