الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

المؤمنُ مَن طابَ مَكْسبُهُ، وحَسُنتْ خَليقَتُه، وصَحَّتْ سَريرَتُهُ، وأنْفقَ الفَضلَ مِن مالِهِ، وأمْسكَ الفَضلَ مِن كلامِهِ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

The believer is he whose earnings are pure, whose character is beautiful, whose conscience is clean, who gives away whatever is surplus from his wealth, and guards whatever is surplus from his speech.

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

المؤمنُ حَسَنُ المَعونةِ، خفيفُ المَؤونةِ، جَيّدُ التّدبيرِ لِمَعيشتِهِ، لا يُلْسَعُ مِن جُحْرٍ مرّتينِ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

The believer is a great helper, and a very light burden. He is good at conomizing for his livelihood, and is never stung twice from one hole [i.e. never makes the same mistake again].

الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):

المؤمنُ بِشْرُهُ في وجهِهِ، و حُزنُهُ في قلبِهِ، أوسَعُ شَيءٍ صَدْرا، و أذَلُّ شَي ءٍ نَفْسا، يَكْرَهُ الرِّفْعةَ، و يَشْنَأُ السُّمْعةَ، طويلٌ غمُّهُ، بَعيدٌ هَمُّهُ، كثيرٌ صَمتُهُ، مَشغولٌ وقتُهُ، شَكورٌ، صَبورٌ، مَغمورٌ بفِكرَتِهِ، ضَنينٌ بخَلّتِهِ، سَهلُ الخَليقةِ، لَيِّنُ العَرِيكةِ، نَفسُهُ أصْلَبُ مِن الصَّلْدِ، و هُو أذَلُّ مِن العبدِ.

Imam Ali (as):

The believer is such that his joy is evident on his face whereas his sorrow is in his heart. His breast is at its widest [i.e. biggest heart] but his ego is at its lowest. He despises high rank and shuns reputation. His grief is long-lasting and his ambition is lofty. His silence is much and his time occupied. He is grateful, extremely patient, and immersed in deep thought. He is thrifty with his needs. He is good-natured and mild-tempered. His soul is firmer than steel whilst he [i.e. his ego] remains lower than a slave.

رسول الله (صلی الله علیه و آله):

يَصِفُ المؤمنَ: لطيفُ الحَرَكاتِ، حُلْوُ المُشاهَدةِ ... يَطلُبُ مِن الامورِ أعلاها، و مِن الأخلاقِ أسْناها ... لا يَحيفُ على مَن يُبغِضُ، و لا يأثَمُ فيمَن يُحِبُّ ... قليلُ المؤونةِ، كثير المَعونةِ ... يُحسِنُ في عملِهِ كأنّهُ ناظرٌ إلَيهِ، غَضُّ الطَّرْفِ، سَخِيُّ الكَفِّ، لا يَرُدُّ سائلًا ... يَزِنُ كلامَهُ، و يُخْرِسُ لسانَهُ ... لا يَقبَلُ الباطلَ مِن صديقِهِ، و لا يَرُدُّ الحقَّ على عدوِّهِ، و لا يَتعلّمُ إلّا لِيَعْلمَ، و لا يَعلمُ إلّا لِيَعْملَ ... إن سلَكَ مَع أهلِ الدُّنيا كانَ أكيَسَهُم، و إنْ سَلكَ مَع أهلِ الآخرةِ كانَ أورَعَهُم.

The Prophet Muhammad (S):

Describing the believer, the Prophet (s) said: [He is] subtle in his movements, sweet to look at… he seeks out the loftiest of matters, and has the most outstanding moral ethics… he does not wrong the one he hates, nor does he commit sin in favour of the one he loves… he is hardly a burden, and instead is very helpful… he perfects his actions as if he is being watched, lowers his gaze, is liberal in his giving, and never turns away a beggar… he considers his words carefully and guards his tongue… he neither accepts falsehood from a friend, nor rejects the truth from an enemy… he only learns in order that he might know, and he only seeks to know in order that he may act… When he travels with worldly people, he is the smartest of them, and when he travels with the people of the Hereafter, he is the most pious from among them.
