Prophet Muhammad's testament to Ali bin Abi Talib, Good or bad Humans in the View of Allah SWT
The Prophet Muhammad SAW said, "O Ali, the best person according to Allah is the one who benefits others a lot. The worst person in the sight of Allah is the one who has a long life, but his deeds are not good. Whereas a good person according to Allah is one who has a long life and good deeds. People who are very hated by Allah are those who eat alone, are reluctant to feed their friends and like to beat slaves (helpers or subordinates), respect the rich and underestimate the poor.
Worse than that is, people who live on illegitimate income and die while still hanging around with illegitimate ones. People who are uglier than that are people who have a long life, bad deeds of deeds, do not want to stay away from things that are forbidden by Allah, but still hope for His forgiveness. People who are more evil than that are people who show alms to fellow Muslims, but behind that he has other intentions. The person who is worse than all of that is the person who when he was young was negligent and when he was old he was lazy to obey Allah SWT.
