Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ أَنَّهُ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْض
َلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُؤْمِنٌ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ فَقَالُوا ثُمَّ مَنْ قَالَ مُؤْمِنٌ فِي شِعْبٍ مِنْ الشِّعَابِ يَتَّقِي اللَّهَ وَيَدَعُ النَّاسَ مِنْ شَرِّهِ

Abu al-Yaman narrated to us, Shu'ayb informed us, from al-Zuhri, who said: And 'Ata' ibn Yazid narrated to me, that Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (رضي الله عنه) narrated to him that it was said: "O Messenger of Allah, which people are the best?" the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "A believer who strives in the path of Allah with his self and his wealth." They said: "Then who?" He said: "A man who withdraws to a mountain pass from among the mountain passes, worshipping his Lord and sparing the people from his evil."
