Hadith.4901 - Abdullah ibn Muskan narrated from Abu Abdullah Al-Sadiq (as) who said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, distinguished His Messenger (peace be upon him and his family) with noble character traits. Therefore, examine yourselves, and if you find these traits within you, then praise Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, and seek from Him (swt) an increase in them." He (as) then mentioned ten traits: certainty (yaqin), contentment (qana'ah), patience (sabr), gratitude (shukr), forbearance (hilm), good manners (husn al-khuluq), generosity (sakha'), protective jealousy (ghayrah), courage (shuja'ah), and honor (muru'ah).
