Smiling Is Charity
تَبَسُّمُكَ فِي وَجْهِ أَخِيكَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ
Your smiling in the face of your brother is charity. Commanding good and forbidding evil is charity. Your guiding a person who is lost is charity.

Finding hadith references and reading with context
How can I find a hadith by topic or reference?
Use the hadith search to look for words in the title, English text or reference. You can also filter by collection. Open an entry for its available Arabic text, reference, grading and explanatory notes.
Does every hadith have the same grading?
No. Check the grading supplied with the individual narration rather than assuming every entry has the same status. Where a grading or its attribution needs clarification, check the source and report the issue for review.
Can a hadith entry answer my personal religious ruling?
An entry is a reading resource with its supplied reference and notes. A personal religious question may require context and qualified scholarship. Ask a qualified scholar rather than treating an isolated quotation or a website summary as a personal ruling.
