Arabic text

3682 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «كَانَ عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ غُصْنُ شَجَرَةٍ يُؤْذِي النَّاسَ فَأَمَاطَهَا رَجُلٌ، فَأُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ»

Commentary

a. Protecting people from harm and loss is a beloved act to Allāh. b. Any insignificant act, that is useful for people, can lead one to enter Paradise. c. Blocking a road or narrowing a way with transgression is a great major sin. d. Throwing waste and garbage or relieving oneself on thoroughfares is a major sin. Those who relieve themselves under the shade of a tree where people sit or on the thoroughfares provoke cursing.
