| Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says (Translation): And worship and serve Allah. And ascribe nothing as partner to Him. (Show) Kindness to parents, and to near kindred, and orphans, and the needy, and to the near neighbour, and the distant neighbour, and your companion (in daily interactions or at work or in travel), and the traveller, and slaves whom you possess. Verily! Allah loves not such as are proud and boastful. (An-Nisa 4: 36) Note: A "close neighbour" is he who resides in the immediate neighbourhood and is also a relative. The distant neighbour is one who is not relative. Another interpretation is that a "close neighbour" is one whose door is just near to yours and a distant neighbour is one whose door is away. A "traveller includes a person accompanying you in a journey, a traveller who is presently your guest or any traveller who is in need. |
