The Rank of the Neighbour

عن عائشة  رضي الله عنها: أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال ما زال جبريل يوصيني بالجار حتى ظننت أنه سيورثه (ترمذي رقم 1942)

Hadhrat Aaisha (Radhiallahu Anha) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “Hadhrat Jibra’eel (Alayhis Salaam) continued bringing commands from Allah Ta’ala to me regarding the rights of the neighbour, to such an extent that I thought (on account of the esteemed position of the neighbour in the sight of Allah Ta’ala), that Allah Ta’ala will include him among the heirs (of a person’s estate).”

Abdullah bin Amr (Radhiallahu Anhu) and his Jewish Neighbour

On one occasion, a goat was slaughtered in the house of Hadhrat Abdullah bin Amr (Radhiallahu Anhu). Upon arriving home Hadhrat Abdullah bin Amr (Radhiallahu Anhu) immediately enquired, “Did you send anything (from the slaughtered goat) for the Jewish neighbour?” I heard Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) say: ‘Hadhrat Jibra’eel (Alayhis Salaam) continued bringing commands from Allah Ta’ala to me regarding the rights of the neighbour, to such an extent that I thought (on account of the esteemed position of the neighbour in the sight of Allah Ta’ala), that Allah Ta’ala will include him among the heirs (of a person’s estate).’” (Tirmizi)
