I guarantee a house on the outskirts of Paradise for the one who refrains from arguing even if he is right

Abu Umāmah al-Bāhili (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I guarantee a house on the outskirts of Paradise for the one who refrains from arguing even if he is right, and a house in the middle of Paradise for the one who refrains from lying even if he is joking, and a house in the highest part of Paradise for the one who perfects his manners."

[Good hadith] [Narrated by Abu Daoud]

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that he guarantees a house in the surroundings of Paradise for the one who refrains from arguing even if he is right, because arguing is a waste of time and causes enmity and hatred among people. He also guarantees a house in the middle part of Paradise for the one who refrains from lying even if he is joking and a house in the highest part of Paradise for the one who improves and perfects his manners by striving to discipline himself.
