Authentic for being narrated by another companionNarrated by Abu Daoud & Ahmad

Verily, a believer can attain, by his good manners, the rank of one who fasts and prays often

عن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: «إنَّ المُؤْمِنَ ليُدرِكُ بِحُسْنِ خُلُقِهِ دَرَجَةَ الصَّائِمِ القَائِمِ».

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that good manners enable one to reach the rank of a person who persistently fasts during the day and prays at night. The core of good manners is doing good, speaking good words, having a smiling face, and refraining from harming people and bearing harm from them.
