Hadith 84

The Book of Good Manners

ENGLISH

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Iman has sixty odd or seventy odd branches. The uppermost of all these is the Testimony of Faith: 'La ilaha illallah' (there is no true god except Allah) while the least of them is the removal of harmful object from the road. And shyness is a branch of Iman." <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>.

ARABIC

-وعن أبى هريرة رضي الله عنه، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ “الإيمان بضع وسبعون، أو بضع وستون شعبة، فأفضلها قول لا إله إلا الله، وأدناها إماطة الأذى عن الطريق، والحياء شعبة من الإيمان” ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏ ‏.‏
