‘Abdallah b. ‘Amr reported God’s messenger as saying,
“If you worship the Compassionate One, provide food, and greet all Whom you meet, you will enter paradise in peace.”
Jabir reported God’s messenger as saying,
“Every act of kindness is sadaqa, and kindness includes meeting your brother with a cheerful face and pouring water from your bucket into your brother’s vessel."
When the Prophet came to Medina and I went and examined his face, I recognised that it was not the face of a liar. The first thing he said was,
“If you people greet all whom you meet, provide food, care for the wellbeing of your kindred, and pray at night when people are asleep, you will enter paradise in peace.’’
