Or you can just put in your sig: <i>The brother formerly known as Todd.</i>
Back to the topic, I have been looking but I cannot find the text of the hadith that was in my head but the meaning was like this:
The most beloved to Allah is a man of little means, he lives in a small and humble home, he is not well-known, and when he dies, his mourners will be few.
I liked it because as people we might sometimes fall into judging a persons devotion when only Allah knows what is the truth, and maybe the one we expect is the least devoted is one of the best.
I think it kind of ties into what Abu Mubarak had posted.
