It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Avoid sitting in the roads and in the open courtyards (in front of houses)." The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! We have no option other than that." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you will not refrain and must sit there, then give the road its right." They asked: "O Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is the right of the road?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Returning the greeting, lowering the gaze, responding to the one who sneezes with a supplication, and showing the way (to one who has lost it)."
