Hadith #50502
وَعَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ مَكِيثٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «حُسْنُ الْمَلَكَةِ يُمْنٌ وَسُوءُ الْخُلُقِ شُؤْمٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَلَمْ أَرَ فِي غَيْرِ الْمَصَابِيحِ مَا زَادَ عَلَيْهِ فيهِ منْ قولِهِ: «والصَّدَقةُ تمنَعُ مِيتةَ السُّوءِ والبِرُّ زيادةٌ فِي العُمُرِ»
On the authority of Rafi’ bin Makith that the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “Good character is good, and bad character is bad.” It was narrated by Abu Dawud, and I have not seen anything other than Al-Masbih in which he said: “And charity prevents a bad death, and righteousness increases one’s lifespan.”
