In the Quran, there is an ayah of chapter 41 verse 33 (41:33, Surah Fussilat)
The literal meaning is “And who is better in speech than one who invites to Allah and does righteousness and says, "Indeed, I am of the Muslims." (Sahih International)
The true meaning is explained by Hasan Basri Rahmatullah Alaih.
Hassan Basri Rahmatullah Alaih is a great scholar of the tabieen, who met many sahabah RA. When explaining the meaning of this ayah, he said, "This is the beloved of Allah, this is the close friend of Allah, this is the chosen one of Allah, this is the most beloved of the all the people of earth to Allah. He responded to the call of Allah and called mankind to that to which he had responded. He did righteous deeds in response and said, ` I am one of the Muslims.' This is Allah's Khalifah.''
