Asma' bint Yazid reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "Shall I tell you who is the best of you?" "Yes,,"
they replied. He said, "Those who remind you of Allah when you see them."
He went on to say, "Shall I tell you who is the worst of you?" "Yes," they
replied. He said, "Those who go about slandering, causing mischief between
friends in order to separate them, and desiring to lead the innocent into
wrong action."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ: كُنَّا مَعَ حُذَيْفَةَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّ رَجُلا يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ، فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ: لا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ قَتَّاتٌ.
Himam said, "We were with Hudhayfa when he was told, 'A man has
a hadith going back to 'Uthman.' Hudhayfa said, 'I heard the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "A mischief-maker will not enter
the Garden."'"
