Giving Presents to Nearest Neighbours

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) advised to give a present to the neighbour whose door is nearest.

'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: I said, "O Messenger of Allah , I have two neighbours, to which of them should I send a present?" He replied, "To the one whose door is nearer to you". Al-Bukhari
وعن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت‏:‏ قلت‏:‏ يارسول الله إن لي جارين، فإلى أيهما أُهْدِي‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ ‏ "‏ إلى أقربهما منك بابًا‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه البخاري‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Prioritize your closest neighbors in terms of kindness and generosity; Use resources for good deeds such as giving presents or helping out those in need; Think about how your actions affect others around you; Perform small acts of kindness which can make a difference in someone's life; Bring joy into people's hearts through your actions.

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) speaks of the importance of being kind and generous towards one's neighbours. It is reported that she asked the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ which of her two neighbours should she send a present to and he replied that it should be sent to the one whose door was nearer. This teaches us that we should prioritize our closest neighbours in terms of kindness and generosity as they are more deserving than those who live further away from us. We can also learn from this hadith that even small acts of kindness can make a difference in someone's life and bring joy into their hearts. Furthermore, it encourages us to think about how our actions affect others around us and how we can use our resources for good deeds such as giving presents or helping out those in need.
