حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْكَعْبِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ الضِّيَافَةُ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَجَائِزَتُهُ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ وَمَا أُنْفِقَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ صَدَقَةٌ وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَثْوِيَ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى يُحْرِجَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ وَاللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَأَبُو شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيُّ هُوَ الْكَعْبِيُّ وَهُوَ الْعَدَوِيُّ اسْمُهُ خُوَيْلِدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ‏.‏ وَمَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ ‏"‏ لاَ يَثْوِي عِنْدَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي الضَّيْفَ لاَ يُقِيمُ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى يَشْتَدَّ عَلَى صَاحِبِ الْمَنْزِلِ وَالْحَرَجُ هُوَ الضِّيقُ إِنَّمَا قَوْلُهُ ‏"‏ حَتَّى يُحْرِجَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَقُولُ حَتَّى يُضَيِّقَ عَلَيْهِ ‏.‏
: "Hospitality is for three days, and his reward is a day and a night, and whatever is spent on him after that is charity. And it is not lawful for him (the guest) to stay so long as to cause him harm."
Narrated by Abu Shuraih Al-Kabi narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:

Context

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ emphasizes the importance of hospitality, stating that a guest should be welcomed for three days, with the first day and night being a reward for the host. Beyond this period, any additional hospitality is considered charity. The hadith also warns against overstaying one's welcome, ensuring that the guest does not cause discomfort to the host.

Modern Application

When hosting guests, it's important to be generous and welcoming, especially during the first few days. However, it's equally vital to be mindful of the host's comfort and not to overstay, fostering a balance of hospitality and respect in our relationships.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Community and Hospitality in Islam because it illustrates the significance of welcoming guests while also highlighting the need to respect the host's boundaries.
