“The believer is more precious to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, than some of His angels.”  

ابن ماجة:٣٩٤٧حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُهَزِّمِ يَزِيدُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمُؤْمِنُ أَكْرَمُ عَلَى اللَّهِ ﷻ مِنْ بَعْضِ مَلاَئِكَتِهِ
