Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْجُلُوسَ فِي الطُّرُقَاتِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَنَا مِنْ مَجَالِسِنَا بُدٌّ نَتَحَدَّثُ فِيهَا قَالَ فَأَمَّا إِذَا أَبَيْتُمْ إِلَّا الْمَجْلِسَ فَأَعْطُوا الطَّرِيقَ حَقَّهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا حَقُّ الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ غَضُّ الْبَصَرِ وَكَفُّ الْأَذَى وَرَدُّ السَّلَامِ وَالْأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيُ عَنْ الْمُنْكَرِ.
English Translation
'Abd al-Rahman told us, Zuhayr ibn Muhammad told us, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from 'Ata' ibn Yasar, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Beware of sitting in the pathways." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have no choice but to sit in our gathering places to talk." He said, "If you insist on sitting, then give the pathway its due." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the due of the pathway?" He said, "Lowering the gaze, refraining from harm, returning the greeting, enjoining good, and forbidding evil."
