Jami at-Tirmidhi 3815 (Book 49, Hadith 215) #29477
Respect for Others' Opinions

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of respecting and following the opinion of others, even if it differs from one's own.

Narrated Jabalah bin Harithah, the brother of Zaid: "I came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, send my brother Zaid with me'. He said: 'Here he is'. He said: "'If he goes with you, I will not prevent him'. Zaid said: 'O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, I will not choose anyone over you'." He said: "So I considered the view of my brother to be better than my own view".
حَدَّثَنَا الْجَرَّاحُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، وَغَيْرُ، وَاحِدٍ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الرُّومِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي جَبَلَةُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ، أَخُو زَيْدٍ قَالَ قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ابْعَثْ مَعِي أَخِي زَيْدًا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ هُوَ ذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَإِنِ انْطَلَقَ مَعَكَ لَمْ أَمْنَعْهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ زَيْدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَخْتَارُ عَلَيْكَ أَحَدًا ‏.‏ قَالَ فَرَأَيْتُ رَأْىَ أَخِي أَفْضَلَ مِنْ رَأْيِي ‏.‏ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ الرُّومِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respecting and following other people's opinions even if they differ from your own view or opinion. Being open-minded and considerate towards other people's opinions as well.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights the importance of respecting and following the opinion of others, even if it differs from one's own. It is narrated by Jabalah bin Harithah, who was the brother of Zaid. He came to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ asking him to send his brother with him on a journey. The Prophet ﷺ agreed but Zaid refused to go with him as he felt that staying with Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was more important than going on a journey with his brother. This shows that we should respect and follow other people's opinions even if they differ from our own view or opinion. We should not be stubborn in our views but rather be open-minded and considerate towards other people's opinions as well.
