The Prophet ﷺ said, "A Muslim is the one who avoids harming Muslims with his tongue and hands. And a muhajir (emigrant) is the one who abandons all what Allah has forbidden."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «الْمُسْلِمُ مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ، وَالْمُهَاجِرُ مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا نَهَى اللَّهُ عَنْهُ».

A Muslim is he from whose hand and tongue the Muslims are safe. (Using translation from Muslim 41)
سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَلَا تُحَدِّثْنِي عَنِ التَّوْرَاةِ وَالْإِنْجِيلِ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْمُسْلِمُ مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ وَالْمُهَاجِرُ مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا نَهَى الله عَنْهُ
‘Amir said “A man came to ‘Abd Allaah bin ‘Amr while the people were with him. He sat with him and said “Tell me anything that you heard from the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ”. He said “I hears the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ say “A Muslim is he from whose tongue and hand the Muslims remain safe and an emigrant is he who abandons what Allaah has prohibited.”” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2481)
حَدِّثْنِي حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْمُسْلِمُ مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ وَالْمُهَاجِرُ مَنْ هَجَرَ مَا نَهَى الله عَنْهُ
