The Benefits of Travelling in Groups

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught that when travelling, it is better to travel in groups of three or more people as it will reduce the influence of Satan.

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught us that when travelling, it is better to travel in groups of three or more people. This is because travelling alone can lead to the influence of Satan and evil thoughts. When we are accompanied by others, we are less likely to succumb to such temptations and can benefit from companionship and support on our journey. Furthermore, travelling together can also help us stay safe as there will always be someone around who can look out for each other. Thus, this hadith encourages us to seek companionship while travelling so that we may remain safe from any harm or danger along the way.
