It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man presented himself in the court of the Messenger and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, which person is the best?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The one whose life is long and whose deeds are good." The questioner asked, "And who is the worst person?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The one whose life is long and whose deeds are bad."
