Five rights of a Muslim upon another Muslim
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “The rights of a Muslim over another Muslim are five.”
from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Five things are incumbent upon a Muslim toward his brother: (1) returning the greeting of peace, (2) saying ‘may Allah have mercy on you’ to one who sneezes, (3) accepting an invitation, (4) visiting the sick, and (5) following funeral processions.”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «حَقُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ خَمْسٌ».
ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «خَمْسٌ تَجِبُ لِلْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى أَخِيهِ: (١) رَدُّ السَّلاَمِ، (٢) وَتَشْمِيتُ الْعَاطِسِ، (٣) وَإِجَابَةُ الدَّعْوَةِ، (٤) وَعِيَادَةُ الْمَرِيضِ، (٥) وَاتِّبَاعُ الْجَنَائِزِ».
Six are the rights of a Muslim over another Muslim. It was said to him: Messenger of Allah, what are these? Thereupon he said: When you meet him, offer him greetings;when he invites you to a feast accept it. when he seeks your council give him, and when he sneezes and says:" All praise is due to Allah," you say Yarhamuk Allah (may Allah show mercy to you) ; and when he fails ill visit him; and when he dies follow his bier.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ حَقُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ سِتٌّ قِيلَ مَا هُنَّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِذَا لَقِيتَهُ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَيْهِ وَإِذَا دَعَاكَ فَأَجِبْهُ وَإِذَا اسْتَنْصَحَكَ فَانْصَحْ لَهُ وَإِذَا عَطَسَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ فَسَمِّتْهُ وَإِذَا مَرِضَ فَعُدْهُ وَإِذَا مَاتَ فَاتَّبِعْهُ
