The best of people are the ones who protect themselves from sin and injustice, and don't hold rancor and envy in their hearts
It was said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: Which of the people is best? He said, “Everyone who has a makhmūm (tented) heart with a truthful tongue.” They said: Truthful tongue we know of, [however] what is makhmūm heart?’ He said: ‘It is one that is God-conscious and an untainted one: one that has no sin, injustice, rancor, or envy in it.”
قَالَ: قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَىُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: «كُلُّ مَخْمُومِ الْقَلْبِ صَدُوقِ اللِّسَانِ۔» قَالُوا: صَدُوقُ اللِّسَانِ نَعْرِفُهُ فَمَا مَخْمُومُ الْقَلْبِ؟ قَالَ: «هُوَ التَّقِيُّ النَّقِيُّ: لاَ إِثْمَ فِيهِ وَلاَ بَغْىَ وَلاَ غِلَّ وَلاَ حَسَدَ۔»
