And Lady Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said: Then Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, built a mosque in the courtyard of his house, in which he used to pray and recite the Qur'an. The women and children of the polytheists would gather there, and all were greatly astonished. In those days, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was residing in Mecca.

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, "Beware! Avoid sitting on he roads (ways)." The people said, "There is no way out of it as these are our sitting places where we have talks." The Prophet said, "If you must sit there, then observe the rights of the way." They asked, "What are the rights of the way?" He said, "They are the lowering of your gazes (on seeing what is illegal to look at), refraining from harming people, returning greetings, advocating good and forbidding evil."
