Abu Dharr reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "I was shown the actions of my Community
- both good and evil - and I found that one of their good actions
is removing harmful things from the road, I found that one of the evil
actions was spit in the mosque which is not buried."
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مَرَّ رَجُلٌ مُسْلِمٌ بِشَوْكٍ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، فَقَالَ: لَأُمِيطَنَّ هَذَا الشَّوْكَ، لاَ يَضُرُّ رَجُلاً مُسْلِمًا، فَغُفِرَ لَهُ.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "A man came across a thorn in the road and said,
'I will remove this thorn so that it does not harm a Muslim man.' For that
reason he was forgiven."
Abu Barza al-Aslami said, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah, show me
an action by which I will enter the Garden!" He said, 'Remove harmful things
from people's path.'"
