عن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص رضي الله عنه انه سمع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يقول: ((والذي نفس محمد بيده! إن مثل المؤمن لكمثل القطعة من الذهب، نفع عليها صاحبها فلم تغير ولم تنقص، والذي نفس محمد بيده! إن مثل المؤمن لكمثل النحلة اكلت طيبا ووضعت طيبا ووقعت فلم تكسر ولم تفسد))

By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Indeed, the example of a believer is like a honeybee; it eats that which is pure (like a flower), produces that which is pure (like honey), and when it sits on something, it neither breaks it nor spoils it.”
