حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْكَعْبِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلْيُكْرِمْ ضَيْفَهُ جَائِزَتُهُ يَوْمُهُ وَلَيْلَتُهُ الضِّيَافَةُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَمَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ صَدَقَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَثْوِيَ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى يُحْرِجَهُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ قُرِئَ عَلَى الْحَارِثِ بْنِ مِسْكِينٍ وَأَنَا شَاهِدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَكُمْ أَشْهَبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَسُئِلَ مَالِكٌ عَنْ قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ جَائِزَتُهُ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ ؟، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يُكْرِمُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُتْحِفُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَحْفَظُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَوْمًا وَلَيْلَةً وَثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ ضِيَافَةَ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم as sayings: He who believes in Allah and the Last Day should honour his guest provisions for the road are what will serve for a day and night: hospitality extends for three days; what goes after that is sadaqah (charity): and it is not allowable that a guest should stay till he makes himself an encumbrance. Abu Dawud said: Malik was asked about the saying of the Prophet: Provisions for the road what will serve for a day a night. He said: He should honor him, present him some gift, and protect him for a day and night, and hospitality for three days.
