[Machine] We asked Aisha, "O Mother of the Believers, what was the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" She said, "The character of the Messenger of Allah was the Quran." Then she recited, "The believers have certainly succeeded" [Surah Al-Mu'minun, verse 1] until she finished reciting "And they who are observant of their prayer" [Surah Al-Mu'minun, verse 9]. She said, "This is how the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was."  

الكبرى للنسائي:١١٢٨٧أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ بَابَنُوسَ قَالَ

قُلْنَا لِعَائِشَةَ يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ كَيْفَ كَانَ خُلُقُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَتْ «كَانَ خُلُقُ رَسُولِ اللهِ الْقُرْآنُ» فَقَرَأَتْ {قَدْ أَفْلَحَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ} [المؤمنون 1] حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ {وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ عَلَى صَلَوَاتِهِمْ يُحَافِظُونَ} [المؤمنون 9] قَالَتْ «هَكَذَا كَانَ خُلُقُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ»
