HOSPITALITY

-- He who believes in God and the Last Day should honour his guest; he who believes in God and the Last Day should not annoy his neighbours; and he who believes in God and the Last Day should say what is good or keep silent.
(Bukhari, Muslim).
(Sayings of Muhammad. by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad).

-- It is part of the Sunna that a man should accompany his guest to the door of the house.
(Ibn Majah, Baihaqi).
(Sayings of Muhammad. by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad).

-- He who believes in God and the Last Day should honour his guest. Provisions for the road are what will serve for a day and night; hospitality extends for three days; what goes beyond that is Sadqa; and it is not allowable that a guest should stay till he makes himself encumbrance.
(Bukhari, Muslim).
(Sayings of Muhammad. by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad).

-- Eat together and not separately, for the blessings is associated with the company.
(Ibn Majah).
(Sayings of Muhammad. by Prof. Ghazi Ahmad).
