Prohibition of Relieving Nature on the Paths
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: “اتَّقُوا اللاَّعِنَيْنِ” قَالُوا: وَمَا اللاَّعِنَانِ؟ قَالَ: الَّذِي يَتَخَلَّى فِي طَرِيقِ النَّاس أَو فِي ظلهم ((رَوَاهُ مُسلم)).
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Avoid two habits which provoke cursing." The Companions said: "What are those things which provoke cursing?" He said, "Relieving on the thoroughfares or under the shades where people take shelter and rest." [Muslim].
