Hazrat Abu Umāmah رضي الله عنه narrates that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم said; “I guarantee a home on the border of Jannah for the one who avoids arguing even though he is right, and a home in the centre of Jannah for the one who avoids lying even if it be in jest, and a home in the highest levels of Jannah for the one whose character is sublime.” (Sunan Abū Dawūd, Vol 2, Page 313)
Hazrat Abdullah ibn ‘Amar رضي الله عنهما narrates that he heard Sayyiduna Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم saying; “Should I not inform you of the one who is dearest to me, and who would be closest to me on the Day of Qiyaamah?” Sayyiduna Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم repeated the question twice or thrice, where after the Sahābah رضوان الله عليهم أجمعين said; “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” Sayyiduna Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم said; “The one who is best in character.” (Majma’, Vol 8, Page 14)
Hazrat Abū Tha’labah Khushanī رضي الله عنه narrates that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah صلى الله عليه وسلم said; “The dearest and nearest to me on the day of resurrection will be those who are best in character, and those whom I will detest the most and who will be very distant from me on that day will be those of you who have evil character.” (Majma’, Vol 8, Page 14)
