Sunan Ibn Majah 2422 (Book 15, Hadith 33) #31774
Taking Rights Respectfully

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) advised people to take their rights in a respectful manner.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said to the one who was entitled to something: "Take your rights in a decent manner as much as he can".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُؤَمَّلِ بْنِ الصَّبَّاحِ الْقَيْسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَبَّبٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ الطَّائِفِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَامِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ ‏ "‏ خُذْ حَقَّكَ فِي عَفَافٍ وَافٍ أَوْ غَيْرِ وَافٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Take one's right respectfully
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught us that when we are entitled to something, we should take it in a decent and respectful manner. This means that we should not demand more than what is rightfully ours and should not act aggressively or rudely when asking for our rights. We must remember to remain humble and polite even when asking for what is due to us. This hadith also teaches us the importance of respecting others’ rights as well as our own; if someone has something that belongs to us, then we must ask them politely for it instead of demanding it from them. By following this advice from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), we can ensure that everyone’s rights are respected and taken care of in an appropriate way.
