The Prophet ﷺ was the best among the people (both in shape and character) and was the most generous of them, and was the bravest of them. Once, during the night, the people of Medina got afraid (of a sound). So the people went towards that sound, but the Prophet ﷺ having gone to that sound before them, met them while he was saying, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." (At that time) he was riding a horse belonging to Abu Talha and it was naked without a saddle, and he was carrying a sword slung at his neck. The Prophet ﷺ said, "I found it (the horse) like a sea, or, it is the sea indeed."

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ وَأَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ وَأَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ وَلَقَدْ فَزِعَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَانْطَلَقَ النَّاسُ قِبَلَ الصَّوْتِ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَدْ سَبَقَ النَّاسَ إِلَى الصَّوْتِ وَهْوَ يَقُولُ لَنْ تُرَاعُوا لَنْ تُرَاعُوا وَهْوَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْىٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ سَرْجٌ فِي عُنُقِهِ سَيْفٌ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ وَجَدْتُهُ بَحْرًا أَوْ إِنَّهُ لَبَحْرٌ

Never was the Prophet ﷺ asked for a thing to be given for which his answer was 'no'.

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا ؓ يَقُولُ مَا سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ شَىْءٍ قَطُّ فَقَالَ لاَ

We were sitting with ʿAbdullah bin ʿAmr who was narrating to us (Hadith): He said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ was neither a Fahish nor a Mutafahhish, and he used to say, 'The best among you are the best in character (having good manners)."'

لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَاحِشًا وَلاَ مُتَفَحِّشًا وَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ خِيَارَكُمْ أَحَاسِنُكُمْ أَخْلاَقًا

Sahl bin Saʿd said that a woman brought a Burda (sheet) to the Prophet. Sahl asked the people, "Do you know what is a Burda?" The people replied, "It is a 'Shamla', a sheet with a fringe." That woman said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have brought it so that you may wear it." So the Prophet ﷺ took it because he was in need of it and wore it. A man among his companions, seeing him wearing it, said, "O Allah's Apostle! Please give it to me to wear." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes." (and gave him that sheet). When the Prophet left, the man was blamed by his companions who said, "It was not nice on your part to ask the Prophet for it while you know that he took it because he was in need of it, and you also know that he (the Prophet) never turns down anybody's request that he might be asked for." That man said, "I just wanted to have its blessings as the Prophet ﷺ had put it on, so l hoped that I might be shrouded in it."

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِبُرْدَةٍ فَقَالَ سَهْلٌ لِلْقَوْمِ أَتَدْرُونَ مَا الْبُرْدَةُ فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ هِيَ شَمْلَةٌ فَقَالَ سَهْلٌ هِيَ شَمْلَةٌ مَنْسُوجَةٌ فِيهَا حَاشِيَتُهَا فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَكْسُوكَ هَذِهِ فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا فَلَبِسَهَا فَرَآهَا عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الصَّحَابَةِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَحْسَنَ هَذِهِ فَاكْسُنِيهَا فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَلَمَّا قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لاَمَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ قَالُوا مَا أَحْسَنْتَ حِينَ رَأَيْتَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَخَذَهَا مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ سَأَلْتَهُ إِيَّاهَا وَقَدْ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ لاَ يُسْأَلُ شَيْئًا فَيَمْنَعَهُ فَقَالَ رَجَوْتُ بَرَكَتَهَا حِينَ لَبِسَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَعَلِّي أُكَفَّنُ فِيهَا

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Time will pass rapidly, good deeds will decrease, and miserliness will be thrown (in the hearts of the people), and the Harj (will increase)." They asked, "What is the Harj?" He replied, "(It is) killing (murdering), (it is) murdering (killing).

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَتَقَارَبُ الزَّمَانُ وَيَنْقُصُ الْعَمَلُ وَيُلْقَى الشُّحُّ وَيَكْثُرُ الْهَرْجُ قَالُوا وَمَا الْهَرْجُ قَالَ الْقَتْلُ الْقَتْلُ

I served the Prophet ﷺ for ten years, and he never said to me, "Uf" (a minor harsh word denoting impatience) and never blamed me by saying, "Why did you do so or why didn't you do so?"

خَدَمْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ فَمَا قَالَ لِي أُفٍّ وَلاَ لِمَ صَنَعْتَ وَلاَ أَلاَّ صَنَعْتَ
