باب حق الجار والوصية به
وعن عبدِ اللَّه بن عمر رضي اللَّه عنهما قال : قال رسول اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم: « خَيْرُ الأَصحاب عِنْدَ اللَّهِ تعالى خَيْرُهُمْ لصـاحِبِهِ ، وخَيْرُ الجيران عِنْدَ اللَّه تعالى خيْرُهُمْ لجارِهِ » رواه الترمذي وقال : حديث حسن .
311/39 - رياض الصالحين
Rights of Neighbors
`Abdullah bin `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "The best of companions with Allah is the one who is best to his companions, and the best of neighbours to Allah is the one who is the best of them to his neighbour".[At-Tirmidhi].


Commentary:
Companion is a common word which covers companions in journey and stay. Muslims are ordained to treat all of them nicely. But one's neighbour has precedence over others. Nice treatment to him is the best means to attain a distinctive place with Allah.
