Consider all aspects before making a decision

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad is considering forbidding a practice called "Ghilah". This is something done by both the Persians and Romans. However, he remembers that it does not harm their children and so decides to allow it. This hadith teaches us an important lesson about making decisions - we should always consider all aspects before making a decision as there may be factors we are unaware of which could change our opinion on something. We should also remember to take into account how our decisions will affect others, especially children who are more vulnerable than adults.
