Seven Do's and Don'ts of Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ ordered us to do seven things and forbade us from seven other things, such as paying a visit to the sick, helping the oppressed, and returning greetings.

Narrated Al-Bara: The Prophet ordered us to do seven (things) and forbade us from seven (other things): He ordered us to pay a visit to the sick, to follow funeral possessions, to say: May Allah be merciful to you to a sneezer, - if he says: Praise be to Allah, to accept invitation (invitation to a wedding banquet), to return greetings, to help the oppressed, and to help others to fulfill their oaths (provided it was not sinful). And he forbade us from seven (things): to wear golden rings or golden bangles, to wear silk (cloth), Dibaj, Sundus and Mayathir.
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الأَشْعَثِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ أَمَرَنَا النَّبِيُّ بِسَبْعٍ، وَنَهَانَا عَنْ سَبْعٍ، أَمَرَنَا بِعِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ، وَاتِّبَاعِ الْجِنَازَةِ، وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ، وَإِجَابَةِ الدَّاعِي، وَرَدِّ السَّلاَمِ، وَنَصْرِ الْمَظْلُومِ، وَإِبْرَارِ الْمُقْسِمِ، وَنَهَانَا عَنْ سَبْعٍ، عَنْ خَاتَمِ الذَّهَبِ ـ أَوْ قَالَ حَلْقَةِ الذَّهَبِ ـ وَعَنْ لُبْسِ الْحَرِيرِ، وَالدِّيبَاجِ، وَالسُّنْدُسِ، وَالْمَيَاثِرِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ regarding how we should conduct ourselves in our daily lives. He taught us to do seven things such as visiting the sick, following funeral processions, responding positively when someone sneezes near you, accepting invitations to weddings or other events, returning greetings when someone greets you first, helping those who are oppressed or wronged in any way possible and helping others fulfill their oaths if it is not sinful. He also taught us not to wear gold rings or bangles nor wear silk cloth called Dibaj Sundus or Mayathir. These teachings are important for Muslims because they help guide our behavior towards others in a positive manner that reflects Islamic values of kindness and compassion towards all people regardless of their faith or background.
