Hadith text

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Beware! Avoid sitting on the roads." They (the people) said, "O Allah's Apostle! We can't help sitting (on the roads) as these are (our places) here we have talks." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'If you refuse but to sit, then pay the road its right ' They said, "What is the right of the road, O Allah's Apostle?" He said, 'Lowering your gaze, refraining from harming others, returning greeting, and enjoining what is good, and forbidding what is evil

Abu Saeed Al-Khudri bataate hain: Nabi (SAW) ne farmaya, 'Khabardaar! Raaston par baithne se bacho.' Logon ne kaha, 'Aye Allah ke Rasool! Hum (raaston par) baithe bagair nahi reh sakte, kyunke ye (hamaari jagah) hain jahaan hum baaten karte hain.' Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'Agar tum baithne se inkaar karte ho, to raaste ka haq ada karo.' Unhone kaha, 'Raaste ka haq kya hai, Aye Allah ke Rasool?' Unhone kaha, 'Apni nazar neechi rakhna, doosron ko takleef na dena, salaam ka jawab dena, aur achhi baat ki taakeed karna, aur buraai se rokna.'
