The question arises, what to do with a bad neighbour.
In a Muslim society, the best thing which is certain to stop anyone from behaving badly towards his neighbours is to publicize the fact that he treats his neighbours badly.
Abu Hurairah, a companion of the Prophet, mentions that a man said to the Prophet: Messenger of Allah, I have a neighbour who causes me harm.
The Prophet said:Go and take your things out into the road.
The man did as the Prophet had suggested.
People gathered around him asking him what was the matter with him.
He told them that he had a neighbour who caused him harm and that he complained to the Prophet who told him to go and put his things out into the road.
People cursed him and prayed Allah to visit him with disgrace.
The man was informed of what happened. He came directly and said to his neighbour:
Go back to your house.
By Allah, I will cause you no harm whatsoever.
(Related by Abu Dawood, Ibn Hibban, and Al-Bukhari in Al-Adab Al-Mufrad).
Thanks for Sharing Tasha./..///I have experienced it ...Once we hd worst neighbours....Alhamdulillah...Now they have left...May Allah Bless them and give them Hidayat...
nice info realy but i dont think we can use it as a rule.its an isolated event in which probably this was the best possible solution.but publicizing someone's bad habits also amounts to GHEEBAT.or it does'nt and what if the bad neighbour becomes more agressive after you have publically spoken against him.
