It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Shurayh ‘Adawi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: My ears heard and my eyes saw when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was saying: “Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his neighbor. And whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his guest with special hospitality.” The narrator asked: O Messenger of Allah! How long is the special hospitality? He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “A day and a night, and hospitality is for three days, and whatever is beyond that is charity for him. And whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should speak good or remain silent.”
