Jabir said, "When you come in to your family, greet them with
a greeting from Allah which is blessed and good." He added, "I only think
that it is what is meant by His words, 'When you are greeted with a
greeting, greet with one better than it or return it.' (4:86)"
Narrated Abu Umama reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, Allah is responsible for three:
if they live, they will
have enough, and if they die, they will enter the Garden. Allah Almighty
is responsible for whoever enters his house , saying 'Peace'. Allah is
responsible for whoever goes out to the mosque. Allah is responsible for
whoever goes out in the Way of Allah."
Jabir reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "When a man enters his house, he should Allah mention
Allah Almighty, both when he enters and he eats. If he does so, Shaytan
says (i.e. to the shayatin), 'You cannot spend the night or eat.'
When he enters and does not mention Allah when he enters, Shaytan says,
'You have got your lodgings for the night and your supper.'"
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا حَيٍّ الْمُؤَذِّنَ حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: لاَ يَحِلُّ لِامْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى جَوْفِ بَيْتٍ حَتَّى يَسْتَأْذِنَ، فَإِنْ فَعَلَ فَقَدْ دَخَلَ. وَلاَ يَؤُمُّ قَوْمًا فَيَخُصُّ نَفْسَهُ بِدَعْوَةٍ دُونَهُمْ حَتَّى يَنْصَرِفَ. وَلاَ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ حَاقِنٌ حَتَّى يَتَخَفَّفَ.
Thawban, the mawla of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, related that the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "It is not lawful for a Muslim man to look inside
a house until he has been given permission. If he does so, he has entered.
He should not act as the imam of a people and then single himself out for
supplication to the exclusion of others. He should not pray while he needs
to urinate until he has relieved himself."
