Hadith 487
۞
8. With this chain of narrators, from Ahmad bin Muhammed, from Haitham bin Abdullah al-Nahdi, from his father, from Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, that he said
Manliness is (separated into) two (dimensions of) manlinesses: the manliness of civility and the manliness of travel. As for the manliness of civility, it is to recite the Qur’an, attending mosques, accompanying the people of goodness and contemplation into knowledge. As for the manliness of travel, it is to spend the excess, joking with other than what angers Allah, little dispute with the one who accompanies you and abandoning the narrating of them when you depart from them.
وبهذا الاسناد، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الهيثم بن عبد الله النهدي، عن أبيه، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال
المروءة مروءتان: مروءة الحضر، ومروءة السفر فأما مروءة الحضر فتلاوة القرآن، وحضور المساجد، وصحبة أهل الخير، والنظر في الفقه. وأما مروءة السفر فبذل الزاد، والمزاح في غير ما يسخط الله، وقلة الخلاف على من صحبك، وترك الرواية عليهم إذا أنت فارقتهم.
