Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he (peace be upon him) said: The most despicable and worst name in the sight of Allah Almighty is that of the person whom people call "Malik al-Muluk" (King of Kings). In another narration, it is stated that there is no owner except Allah Almighty. Sufyan (i.e., Ibn Uyaynah) said that "Malik al-Muluk" is like "Shahanshah" (Emperor). And Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal said: I asked Abu Amr about the meaning of "Akhna‘", and he said that it means the most despicable.

Narrated Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: A Muslim has five rights over his Muslim brother: to return his greeting, to respond to his sneeze, to accept his invitation, to visit him when he is sick, and to accompany his funeral.

Narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: A Muslim has six rights over his Muslim brother. The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What are they?" He (peace be upon him) said: When you meet him, greet him with Salam; when he invites you, accept his invitation; when he seeks your advice, give him good advice; when he sneezes and says Alhamdulillah, respond to him (by saying Yarhamuk Allah); when he is ill, visit him; and when he dies, accompany his funeral.

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: Avoid sitting in the pathways. The people said, "O Messenger of Allah! We are compelled to sit in our gatherings and talk." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If you must do so, then fulfill the rights of the pathway. They asked, "What are the rights of the pathway?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Lowering the gaze, not causing harm to anyone, responding to greetings, enjoining good, and forbidding evil.

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The rider should greet the one who is walking, the one who is walking should greet the one who is sitting, and a smaller group should greet a larger group.

Abu Burdah narrates from Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Peace be upon you, Abdullah bin Qais has come." But he did not permit him to enter. Then he said, "Peace be upon you, Abu Musa is here. Peace be upon you, this Ash'ari has come." (First he mentioned his name, then his kunyah, then his lineage, so that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) would have no doubt.) Eventually, he returned. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Bring him back to me." He returned and said, "O Abu Musa, why did you leave? We were busy with work." He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say, 'Seeking permission is three times; if permission is granted, then good, otherwise return.'" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Bring a witness for this hadith, otherwise I will do this and that (meaning, I will punish you)." Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him), upon hearing this, left. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "If Abu Musa finds a witness, you will find him by the pulpit in the evening; if he does not find a witness, you will not find him by the pulpit." When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the pulpit in the evening, Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) was present. Sayyiduna Umar said, "O Abu Musa! What do you say, did you find a witness?" He said, "Yes, Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) is present." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Indeed, he is trustworthy." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Abu al-Tufail!" (This is the kunyah of Ibn Abi Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him)), "What does Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) say?" Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say," then he supported Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "O son of Khattab, do not be a torment upon the companions of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (i.e., do not trouble them)." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Glory be to Allah! When I heard a hadith, I thought it better to verify it." (And my intention was never, God forbid, to trouble the companions of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), nor did I mean that Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) was lying.)

`Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You have permission to come to me in such a way that the curtain is lifted and you can also listen to my conversation, until I stop you.

Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I sought permission from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked, "Who is it?" I replied, "It is I." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "'It is I, it is I.'" In another narration, it is as if the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) disliked saying "It is I."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man peeped through a hole in the door of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had an iron tool (comb) in his hand, with which he was scratching his head. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw him, he said:“If I had known that you were looking at me, I would have poked your eye.”And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Permission (to enter) has been prescribed only to protect the eye (i.e., from peeping into someone else’s house, and this is forbidden).”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: If someone peeps into your house without your permission, and then you throw a pebble at him and his eye is injured, there will be no sin upon you.
