al-Adab al-Mufrad
الأدَبُ المُفْرَد
Collection of over 1,300 ḥadīths emphasizing Islamic etiquette, personal conduct, compassion, and social dealings: from parents and children to neighbors and servants. This collection is an extension of Imām al-Bukhārī’s Chapter of Adab (Etiquette) in his Ṣaḥīḥ. However, unlike Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, the Imām did not adhere strictly to the criteria of Ṣaḥīḥ narrations, though many ḥadīths here are Ṣaḥīḥ or Ḥasan. Full name: al-Adab al-Mufrad (الأدَبُ المُفْرَد) (The Separate ˹Book˺ on Etiquettes). Sources: sunnah.com for Arabic text and English translation. The English translation has been reviewed and improved by myself and other contributors.

Asma' bint Yazid reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, "Shall I tell you who is the best of you?" "Yes,," they replied. He said, "Those who remind you of Allah when you see them." He went on to say, "Shall I tell you who is the worst of you?" "Yes," they replied. He said, "Those who go about slandering, causing mischief between friends in order to separate them, and desiring to lead the innocent into wrong action."
