EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) teaches us that in order to become a true believer in Allah, we must have the same level of care and concern for our fellow human beings as we do for ourselves. We should not only think about our own needs but also consider how our actions will affect those around us. This means that if we want something good or beneficial for ourselves then we should also want the same thing for others. It is important to remember that all people are equal in the eyes of Allah and so it is essential to treat everyone with respect and kindness regardless of their background or beliefs. By doing this, we can create a more harmonious society where everyone can live together peacefully.
