General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab)

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ بْنُ مُسَرْهَدٍ، وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَنَّ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَهُمْ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، رضى الله عنها قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي جَارَيْنِ بِأَيِّهِمَا أَبْدَأُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ بِأَدْنَاهُمَا بَابًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ طَلْحَةُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ‏.‏
I asked : apostle of Allah! I have two neighbors. With which of them should I begin? He replied: Begin with the one whose door is nearer to you. Abu Dawud said: Shu’bah said this tradition : Talhah is a man of the Quraish.

Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those whom your right hands possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful.
