Making Paths Wide Enough

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught us to make paths wide enough for people to pass through.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: "When you dispute concerning a path, make it seven forearms length wide'. "
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ هَيَّاجٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِذَا اخْتَلَفْتُمْ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَاجْعَلُوهُ سَبْعَةَ أَذْرُعٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us the importance of making paths wide enough for people to pass through. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that when we are in a dispute about a path, it should be seven forearms length wide. This means that the path should be wide enough so that two people can walk side by side without any difficulty. It also teaches us the importance of being considerate and accommodating towards others when it comes to sharing public spaces. We should always strive to create an environment where everyone is comfortable and able to move around freely without any obstruction or hindrance from others.
