'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'As reported that the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The best of companions in
the sight of Allah Almighty is the best of them towards his companion, and
the best of neighbours in the sight of Allah is the best of them towards
his neighbour."
Abu Dharr reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Abu Dharr! If you cook some stew, make a lot of it and fulfil
your duty to your neighbours (or divide it among your neighbours)."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي خَمِيلٌ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مِنْ سَعَادَةِ الْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ: الْمَسْكَنُ الْوَاسِعُ، وَالْجَارُ الصَّالِحُ، وَالْمَرْكَبُ الْهَنِيءُ.
Nafi' ibn 'Abdu'l-Harith reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "Part of the happiness of the Muslim man includes
a spacious dwelling, righteous neighbour and a good mount"
Narrated It is reported that Abu Dharr said, "My dear friend, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, enjoined three things on me:
'Hear and obey, even
if the ruler is a slave with his limbs amputated. When you cook a stew, put
a lot of water in it and then go and see the people of a neighbouring house
and give them a reasonable amount of it. Pray the prayers at their proper
prayers. Then if you find that the imam has already prayed, you have guarded
your prayer (by already having performed it). If not, it is a supererogatory
prayer (since you have done it again)."
