EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of being respectful and courteous when collecting zakat. The Prophet Muhammad is teaching us that it is important to treat people with respect and kindness even if we are asking them for something. We should not be rude or demanding when we are asking for something from someone else. Instead, we should be polite and understanding so that they will feel comfortable giving us what we need. This hadith also teaches us that it is important to make sure that everyone involved in a transaction feels respected and appreciated. If the people who are giving their money away do not feel respected or appreciated then they may not want to give it away at all. Therefore, it is important for those who collect zakat to make sure they treat everyone with respect so that everyone can benefit from this act of charity.
