The Rights of the Way

SUMMARY: This hadith emphasizes the importance of observing the rights of the way, which includes lowering one's gaze, refraining from harming people, returning greetings, advocating good and forbidding evil.

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, "Beware! Avoid sitting on he roads (ways)". The people said, "There is no way out of it as these are our sitting places where we have talks".
