Islam teaches Muslims to treat their neighbors with kindness and respect. Not only to Muslim neighbors but also to non-Muslims.

  Neighbors have a lot of rights; e.g. whenever a new dish is baked, they must share it with them because when they feel the smell of that dish, they might not afford it. Apart from this, while our neighbors send any kind of gifts then we must not ignore them but rather thank them.

     If anyone sees their neighbor is ill or sick then must ask for help or comfort them by doing home chores. Attending funeral prayers is also included in the rights of neighbors.

  As Muslims, we should give charity to the closest neighbors who are in need and later on distribute things to others. If everyone takes care of the basic needs of neighbors surely no one needs to go outside or very far for begging. The writer greatly quoted “A good neighbor is a welcome blessing.”

   Thus, it is from my heart and soul requested to all of the citizens complete their rights towards neighbors which is very essential.
