It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will say on the Day of Resurrection: I commanded you, but you neglected the covenant I made with you concerning it, and you exalted your lineages. So today I will exalt My lineage (that is, taqwa) and lower your lineages. Where are the pious? Where are the God-fearing? Indeed, the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most God-fearing of you." This hadith is high (in its chain) and strange (gharib) in both its chain and its text, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
