-------------------------

It was a very bright morning, and even more bright in the roads of university. It was a very vast university, thus the pathways and the roads leading from one department to another were wide, and often students sat there.

In one of that occasion, a group of a girls, sat on one of those roads laughing loudly making loud squealing voices after every few seconds and having a lunch break, they were throwing the disposable plates and glasses on the roads, from which few students slipped but they took no step to remove it away.

Some students complained about their loud voices but they gave the blunt answer as 'you don't own this university " and continued, even they often looked at the students walking boldly, sometimes just staring making the students uncomfortable and sometimes going far as making comments on them.

They were still on that, when a group of girls wearing abayas and with notes on their hands were walking towards the other department, stopped as one of their friends slipped on the plastic glass on the road and fell on the ground.

They all rushed to help her, and then one of them named Vafa looked at the group of other girls who were still in their own world, and after helping her friend they walked to them.

Vafa looked at her friends and then spoke loudly, "Excuse me, sisters?"

"Another one came", one of them said rolling her eyes and then stood up and said, "No, you are not excused, I know you are one of those who is going to lecture us like you're our mother, when we are just enjoying our university life, tell me do you own this road? If no, then we don't have mood, turn on your heels and go back".

"Yeah", one of her friend chuckled, "It's time for you to listen to someone else's lecture, your teacher must be waiting for you. Now go, police inspector".

And they all went in hysterics, pointing towards Vafa's friends.

Vafa had a calm smile on her face, and then she smiled at her friends Sabra and Fozia, and the three of them instead of going, started to pick up the trash from the road and started throwing it on the trash can on the other side of road, even if they had to grab all of it by their own hands or sweep it off it.

Seeing this, the other group jolted, and stood up, looking at them with wide eyes. This was not what they could expect at all.

"What are you doing?!", one of them creaked, her eyes still wide as her friends, who were these people who were willing to pick up the trash from the road that they not even threw themselves?

"Gaining deeds, sister", Sabra said, as she grabbed the glass and the straw that fell from it.

Fozia calmly walked to them and softly said, "I will not say anything else but, must you sit on roads, sisters?"

"W-We", the same girl from before who shouted not few minutes ago stuttered, "It's not our fault, all the halls and classrooms are busy because of the exams and we are not allowed to sit in the departments and definitely not allowed to make any kind of noise there, so roads are the only available option for us".

Sabra walked next to them and then narrated the sahih hadith,
  حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَسْلَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْجُلُوسَ بِالطُّرُقَاتِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مَا بُدَّ لَنَا مِنْ مَجَالِسِنَا نَتَحَدَّثُ فِيهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ أَبَيْتُمْ فَأَعْطُوا الطَّرِيقَ حَقَّهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ وَمَا حَقُّ الطَّرِيقِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ غَضُّ الْبَصَرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَفُّ الْأَذَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَدُّ السَّلَامِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْيُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ .

" Abu Saeed al-Khudri reported the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم as sayings: Avoid sitting in the roads.
The people said: Messenger of Allahﷺ! We must have meeting places in which to converse. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said:"
If you insist on meeting, give the road its due."
They asked: What is the due of roads, Messenger of Allahﷺ?
He ﷺ replied:
"Lowering the eyes, removing anything offensive, returning salutation, commanding what is reputable and forbidding what is disreputable. "

(Sunan Abi Dawood
Hadith :4815
Book: Kitab Al Adab
Chapter :Regarding sitting in the streets)

"To elobrate this", Fozia said, "This is necessary to know that there are three most important things in this Hadith. First the rights of the road is, lowering your gaze, and do you know the importance of lowering your gaze?"

"It's very important, if you ponder deeply", Vafa completed her sentence, "lowering your gaze helps very much to avoid temptations, it gives haya in your gaze. And removing anything offensive means removing all the things that could harm the people who cross the path. Like that glass, you thew there. "

"And then giving Salams", Sabra said, "means giving the dua of peace to others, and then calling people to the good path and forbidding what is wrong".

"Like you are doing now", that girl smiled, and then together they all cleaned that rubbish, and moved away from the path and always gave the due to the path.

Asslamu'alaikum, if it is short, you can advise me, if I should make it long or should make it short so you can read more and more...
Also.. I had thought of this a loooot before I published it, because in actual, I was afraid... Of you know so many things, like if I could be able to tell you all properly, and I had to remind myself that all the knowledge I shared must be applied by me first, and then I was afraid of sharing even a single wrong word forward, like of the topic above, I had two more Hadith reference, of Musnad Ahmed, but I couldn't find it English translation, I had it in Arabic, I copied that and tried to Google translate it but then I was afraid of single wrong translation, or if I translate the Hadith by myself here, then what if the words I choose, may not be able to tell that clearly what is in the Hadith... And I have to face Allah Almighty one day, too, so I didn't add it..
And then a little reason of delay, too, was that
I first wrote about the topic of Sahih Hadith, what are they?
I mean I think a loot of people don't know what does it require for a Hadith to become a Sahih Or what you call the most accurate Hadith.

BUT I was confused on, I don't know how many people knows about how the Ahadith were collected or its detail... So I didn't want it to be confusing. So tell me, which topic do you want next? Or which topic do you think

Jazakumullahu khairun Katheera for reading until the end
