2500. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever believes in Allāh and the Last Day, then let him honor his guest. And whoever believes in Allāh and the Last Day, then let him say what is good or remain silent.” (Sahīh) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Sahīh. There are narrations on this topic from ‘Aishah, Anas, Abū Shuraih Al-Ka’bī, and he is Al-‘Adawī [Al-Khuzā’ī], and his name is Khuwailid bin ‘Amr.
٢٥٠٠ - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيُكْرِمْ ضَيْفَهُ،» وَمَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَلْيَقُلْ خَيْرًا أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، وَأَنَسٍ، وَأَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ الْكَعْبِيِّ الْخُزَاعِيِّ، وَاسْمُهُ خُوَيْلِدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو.

Generosity towards the guests and giving honorable treatment to them, is a great human virtue and a part of the basic teachings of Islam. Secondly, silence is a bulwark against many troubles and sinful acts. And avoiding sinful acts and idle talk is a sign of the purity of a person’s faith.
