Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ خِبٌّ وَلَا بَخِيلٌ وَلَا منان» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ

Translation

Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, ‘A deceiver, a miser, and one who reminds others of his favors will not enter Paradise.’ Al-Tirmidhi transmitted it.

Translation notes
  • The Arabic uses khibb for a deceitful or crafty person, and mannān for one who reminds others of his gifts.
