English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'The most beloved of people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to people. The most beloved of deeds to Allah is to bring happiness to a Muslim, or to relieve him of hardship, or to pay off a debt for him, or to dispel his hunger.'
