Good Character
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، أَتَى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلِّمْنِي كَلِمَاتٍ أَعِيشُ بِهِنَّ وَلاَ تُكْثِرْ عَلَىَّ فَأَنْسَى . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" لاَ تَغْضَبْ " .
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibn Abd ar-Rahman
ibn Awf that a man came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, and said, "Messenger of Allah, teach me some
words which I can live by. Do not make them too much for me, lest I
forget." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Do not be angry."
