In the following Ayah, gentleness towards neighbours has been advised.
Do good to neighbours who are near, neighbours who are strangers, and the companions by your side. [Al Nisa : 36] (Q22)
The people with we coexist and the neighours with whom we have social interact could not be left out. They enjoy more rights than those with whom we have no such links. Here the neighbours have been classified into three categories - the neighbours who are related to us, the neighbours who are not related; and those who accidently meet us while on travel, in offices, in schools or colleges, or in work places. Such people are also a kind of neighbours. All the religions of the world have given importance to generous behaviour towards neighbours but Islam has not only given importance to this behaviour but has given such a wide meaning to the concept of neighbour that we cannot find its parallel elsewhere. Even brief togetherness of any kind is enough to establish their rights. If this togetherness is longer, the rights are equally more established.
Islam not only says that neighbours should not be hurt in any way but stresses that they deserve our moral and social help. We should treat them in the noblest manner so that every member of society could live with the confidence that he is secure amongst the well-wishers who would be at his service in any juncture. In this regard, Islam's attitude could be inferred from the following traditions.
The Prophet (PBUH) said:
That person is not a believer whose stomach is full and his neighbour remains starving.
It is clear from these traditions that the mark of belief is that his neighbours should be at peace with him and he should be of help to his neighbours in times of crisis.
