EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us that it is forbidden to make a profit off of something that we do not own. This means that if we do not have the right to use or sell something, then it is wrong for us to try and make money from it. This hadith teaches us the importance of being honest in our dealings with others and respecting their property rights. It also reminds us that Allah will reward those who are truthful in their dealings with others. We should strive to be honest in all our transactions so as to gain Allah's pleasure and blessings.
