Sunan Abi Dawud 4974 (Book 43, Hadith 202) #25265
Respectful Language in Islam

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of using proper language and avoiding disrespectful terms.

Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) as saying : None of you should Call (grapes) Karm, for the Karm is a Muslim man, but call (grapes) garden of grapes (hada’iq al-a’nab).
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمُ الْكَرْمَ فَإِنَّ الْكَرْمَ الرَّجُلُ الْمُسْلِمُ وَلَكِنْ قُولُوا حَدَائِقَ الأَعْنَابِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of using respectful language when speaking. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught that it is wrong to use disrespectful terms when referring to things or people. He specifically mentioned not calling grapes “Karm” as this was a name for a Muslim man and would be considered disrespectful. Instead, he instructed us to call them “Hadaiq al-Anab” which means garden of grapes in Arabic. This hadith teaches us that we should always use respectful language when speaking and avoid any words or phrases that could be seen as offensive or hurtful towards others.
