قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَا يَقْدَمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِعَمَلٍ بَعْدَ الْفَرَائِضِ أَحَبَّ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى مِنْ أَنْ يَسَعَ النَّاسَ بِخُلُقِهِ.

4. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from ibn Mahbub from ‘Anbasa al-‘Abid who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) once said to me, ‘No one comes before Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, with good deeds, besides the obligatory ones, more beloved to Allah, the Most Blessed, the Most High, than one with excellent moral behavior that has room for all people in it.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
