Chapter: What has been reported about hospitality.
Hadith 3752
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : قُلْنَا : " يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّكَ تَبْعَثُنَا ، فَنَنْزِلُ بِقَوْمٍ فَمَا يَقْرُونَنَا ، فَمَا تَرَى ؟ ، فَقَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنْ نَزَلْتُمْ بِقَوْمٍ فَأَمَرُوا لَكُمْ بِمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلضَّيْفِ فَاقْبَلُوا ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا ، فَخُذُوا مِنْهُمْ حَقَّ الضَّيْفِ الَّذِي يَنْبَغِي لَهُمْ " ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : وَهَذِهِ حُجَّةٌ لِلرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُ الشَّيْءَ إِذَا كَانَ لَهُ حَقًّا .
Uqbah bin Amir said: we said: Messenger of Allah! You send us out and we come to people who do not give hospitality, so what is your opinion? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: If you come to people who order for you what is fitting for a guest, accept it; but if they do not, take from them what is fitting for them to give to a guest. Abu Dawud said: And this is an authority for a man to take a thing if it is due to him.
