What It Means: Reading in Context
This quoted saying appears within a narration describing the Prophet’s manner of speech and conduct. The surrounding account is omitted from the card and remains available at the source. The parenthetical wording is retained from the displayed English translation. This entry comes from Sahih al-Bukhari 6035. The displayed text is an excerpt, not the complete narration. Follow the source link to read the narrator, full wording and in-book reference together. A hadith number identifies the source used here; numbering systems can differ between editions. Being able to inspect a source is important when a short statement is shared outside its original setting. The accompanying reflection is an editorial prompt for everyday conduct. It is not part of the hadith and does not replace explanation from qualified scholarship. Avoid extending a short reminder into a religious ruling that the entry itself does not establish.
