From the Musnad of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA)
من مسند أبي سعيد الخدري
Hadith 42:252
Zuhayr narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Yusuf narrated to us, from al-Awza'i, from al-Zuhri, from 'Ata' ibn Yazid al-Laythi, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, who said: A man came to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and said: "Which of the people is best?" He said: "A man who strives with his self and his wealth in the way of Allah, and a man—meaning in a mountain pass among the mountain passes—who worships his Lord and leaves the people alone from his evil."
حدثنا زهير حدثنا محمد بن يوسف عن الأوزاعي عن الزهري عن عطاء بن يزيد الليثي عن أبي سعيد الخدري قال جاء رجل إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال * أي الناس خير قال رجل جاهد بنفسه وماله في سبيل الله ورجل يعني في شعب من الشعاب يعبد ربه ويدع الناس من شره
