حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ أَبِي رَجَائٍ عَنْ بُرْدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ مَکْحُولٍ عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ کُنْ وَرِعًا تَکُنْ أَعْبَدَ النَّاسِ وَکُنْ قَنِعًا تَکُنْ أَشْکَرَ النَّاسِ وَأَحِبَّ لِلنَّاسِ مَا تُحِبُّ لِنَفْسِکَ تَکُنْ مُؤْمِنًا وَأَحْسِنْ جِوَارَ مَنْ جَاوَرَکَ تَکُنْ مُسْلِمًا وَأَقِلَّ الضَّحِکَ فَإِنَّ کَثْرَةَ الضَّحِکِ تُمِيتُ الْقَلْبَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 4217
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah p.b.u.h said: '"0 Abu Hurairah, be cautious, and you will be the most devoted of people to Allah. Be content, and you will be the most grateful of people to Allah. Love for people what you love for yourself, and you will be a (true) believer. Be a good neighbor to your neighbors, and you will be a (true) Muslim. And laugh little, for laughing a lot deadens the heart." (Da'if)
