أَخْبَرَنَا
يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق، عَنْ
سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ
أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ:
"مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، فَلْيُكْرِمْ جَارَهُ، وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، فَلْيَقُلْ خَيْرًا، أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ، وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، فَلْيُكْرِمْ ضَيْفَهُ، جَائِزَتَهُ يَوْمًا وَلَيْلَةً، وَالضِّيَافَةُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَمَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ صَدَقَةٌ".
Sayyiduna Abu Shurayh Al-Khuzai (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: “Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his neighbor, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should speak good or remain silent, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his guest (by showing hospitality). Hospitality is (obligatory) for one day and one night, and hospitality is (recommended) for three days; after that, (if the guest stays and the host spends on him) it is charity.”
