Wealth is sweet, lush, and attractive; whoever acquires it rightfully, it will be blessed for him. And you people should avoid praising one another, for doing so is akin to slaughtering."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Usamah bin Sharik (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in such a manner as if birds were sitting on our heads; none of us was speaking.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to travel and said: O Messenger of Allah! Advise me with some counsel. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him." He said, O Prophet of Allah! Give me more advice. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whenever you do an evil deed, immediately follow it with a good deed." He said, O Prophet of Allah! Give me further advice. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Remain steadfast and make your character good."

Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) sent me to a people. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Advise me. He (peace be upon him) said: "Spread salam (greetings of peace), feed (others), have as much modesty before Allah as you have before a member of your household, when you commit a sin then (to remove its effect) immediately do a good deed, and improve your character as much as you are able."

And there is no good in a person who neither loves others nor is loved by them."
