3634. It was narrated from Al-A'raj that Abū Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم said: 'If one of you asks his brother for permission to fix a piece of wood to his wall, he should not prevent him.'" They (those who were listening to Abū Hurairah) lowered their heads and he said: "Why do I see you paying no attention to this Hadīth? I shall most certainly keep reminding you of it." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
