Good Manners

Abu Hurairah (radiAllaahu ’anhu) relates that the Prophet (sallAllaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said: “There are two qualities which can never coexist in a hypocrite: Good manners and understanding of the Religion.”
 
Jaabir (radiAllaahu ’anhu) related that the Prophet (sallAllaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said: “Indeed those most nearest to me and seated nearest to me upon the Day of Resurrection are those with the best manner and character.  And indeed the most hateful to me and sitting farthest away from me upon the Day of Resurrection are the tharthaaroon (those who speak too much), the mutasbaddiqoon (those who are overbearing in their speech) and the mutfayhiqoon.”  We said: We know who the tharthaaroon and the mutasbiddiqoon are, but who are the mutafayhiqoon?  He said: “The arrogant ones.”

[Tirmidhi]
