Sahl bin Sa'd (RAA) narrated, A man came to the Prophet and said,“O Allah`s Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), direct me to a deed which if I do it, I shall be loved by Allah and by people.”He replied,“If you practice abstinence in this world, Allah will love you, and if you abstain from (desiring) what people have, they will love you.”Related by Ibn Majah and others with a good chain of narrators.
