Rights of the Way

SUMMARY: This hadith teaches us to observe the rights of the way, which includes lowering our gaze, removing harmful objects, returning greetings, enjoining good and forbidding wrong.

Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet said, "Beware of sitting on roads (ways)". The people said: "We have but them as sitting places". Messenger of Allah said, "If you have to sit there, then observe the rights of the way". They asked, "What are the rights of the way?" He said, "To lower your gaze (on seeing what is illegal to look at), and (removal of harmful objects), returning greetings, enjoining good and forbidding wrong". Al-Bukhari and Muslim.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about observing the rights of the way. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that when we are sitting on roads or ways, we should lower our gaze from looking at what is illegal to look at, remove any harmful objects from our path and return greetings when someone greets us. We should also enjoin good and forbid wrong. These teachings are important for everyone to follow in order to maintain peace and harmony in society.
