It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade sitting in the open spaces in front of houses and in the roads. The Muslims said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): We are not able to avoid that. Thereupon he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If that is so, then give the road its right." They asked: What is its right? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Returning the greeting, responding to the sneeze of the one who sneezes when he praises Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, lowering your gaze, and showing the way (to one who has lost it)."
