Sahih Muslim 2037 (Book 36, Hadith 186) #12414
Kindness and Respect for Neighbors

SUMMARY: Allah's Messenger ﷺ showed kindness and respect to his neighbor by inviting him to eat with him and 'Aisha.

Anas reported that: Allah's Messenger had a Persian neighbour who made excellent soup. He prepared some for Allah's Messenger and then came to him to invite him to eat. He (Allah's Messenger) said, "and her too," referring to 'Aisha. The man said "No," so Allah's Messenger then said "No". He returned later to invite him again, so Allah's Messenger said "and her too". The man said "No," so Allah's Messenger then said "No". He returned another time to invite him and Allah's Messenger said, "and her too". The man said yes on this third occasion, and they then stood eagerly to go out together to the man's home.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ جَارًا، لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَارِسِيًّا كَانَ طَيِّبَ الْمَرَقِ فَصَنَعَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ وَهَذِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ لِعَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ لاَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ لاَ ‏"‏ فَعَادَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ وَهَذِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ لاَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ عَادَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ وَهَذِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ نَعَمْ ‏.‏ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ ‏.‏ فَقَامَا يَتَدَافَعَانِ حَتَّى أَتَيَا مَنْزِلَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of showing kindness and respect to one's neighbors. It tells us that even though the Prophet Muhammad was a great leader, he still showed respect for those around him, including his neighbor who made excellent soup. The Prophet Muhammad invited his neighbor to eat with him and 'Aisha on three separate occasions, despite the man's initial refusal of 'Aisha's presence. This shows us that we should always be kind and respectful towards our neighbors regardless of their social status or background. We should also strive to make sure that everyone feels included in our activities, as this is an important part of being a good neighbor.
