Hadith Commentary:
Vocabulary of the Hadith:
Bawā’iq:
Plural of bā’iqah,
evil,
corruption and disorder,
something that causes harm and destruction,
calamity.
Benefits and Issues:
To treat neighbors with good conduct and such noble behavior that they have complete assurance and peace from our side,
and that there is no fear of any oppression, excess, mischief, or ill-treatment from us,
this is among the conditions and requirements of faith,
without which faith is, in effect, null and void.
The main objective is to encourage noble conduct.
