The Prophet ﷺ said: There are forty characteristics; the highest of them is to give a goat on loan (for benefiting from its milk). If any man carries out any of those characteristics with the hope of getting a reward and testifying to the promise for it, Allah will admit him to Paradise for it. Abu Dawud said: In the version of Musaddad, Hassan said: So we counted other characteristics than lending the goat: to return the greeting, to respond to sneezing, and remove things which cause annoyance to the people from their path, and similar other things. We could not reach fifteen characteristics.  

حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى وَهَذَا حَدِيثُ مُسَدَّدٍ وَهُوَ أَتَمُّ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنْ حَسَّانَ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ السَّلُولِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعُونَ خَصْلَةً أَعْلاَهُنَّ مَنِيحَةُ الْعَنْزِ مَا يَعْمَلُ رَجُلٌ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلاَّ أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The translation of the given text into English is as follows:

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Forty good deeds, the best of which is the gift of a she-goat, will be credited to a servant or a man (who performs them) with hope for their reward or fulfilling a promise. Allah will admit him to Paradise because of them."  

قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَرْبَعُونَ حَسَنَةً أَعْلَاهَا مِنْحَةُ الْعَنْزِ لَا يَعْمَلُ عَبْدٌ أَوْ قَالَ رَجُلٌ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا أَوْ تَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The merit of the Ahmar is forty good deeds. If a servant performs a good deed of it, hopeful of its reward and believing in its promise, Allah will admit him to Paradise with it."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ حَسَنَةً أَعْلَاهُنَّ مَنِيحَةُ الْعَنْزِ لَا يَعْمَلُ الْعَبْدُ بِحَسَنَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Forty good deeds, the highest of which is giving a gift of a she-camel. There is no good deed that a servant performs, hoping for its reward and believing in its fulfillment, except that Allah will enter him into Paradise with it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعُونَ حَسَنَةً أَعْلَاهَا مِنْحَةُ الْعَنْزِ مَا مِنْهَا حَسَنَةٌ يَعْمَلُ بِهَا عَبْدٌ رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are forty qualities that Allah has bestowed upon His servant, and whoever possesses any of them without seeking its reward or believing in its promise, Allah will enter him into paradise through it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَرْبَعُونَ خَصْلَةً أَعْلَاهُنَّ مِنْحَةُ الْعَنْزِ لَا يَعْمَلُ عَبْدٌ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are forty good deeds, the highest of which is giving a gift of a female goat. No servant does any of these good deeds, hoping for their reward and believing in their promise, except that Allah will admit him into Paradise."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَرْبَعُونَ حَسَنَةً أَعْلَاهُنَّ مِنْحَةُ الْعَنْزِ لَا يَعْمَلُ عَبْدٌ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقًا بِمَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There are forty characteristics, the highest of which is the act of grazing goats. Any servant who performs any of these characteristics in the hope of its reward and belief in its promise, Allah ﷻ will admit him into Paradise through it." Then he mentioned the saying of Hassan with its meaning.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعُونَ خَصْلَةً أَعْلَاهُنَّ مَنِيحَةُ الْعَنْزِ مَا يَعْمَلُ عَبْدٌ مِنْهَا بِخَصْلَةٍ رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ ﷻ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ قَوْلَ حَسَّانَ بِمَعْنَاهُ
