Explanation of the Hadith: Beware of Sitting in the Roads

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Please explain to me the hadith that says, "Beware of sitting in the roads."

Answer:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) warned against sitting in the roads, because they harm the passersby. They may talk about them, so no benefit is obtained from them, but rather harm is caused to the passersby. If they insist on sitting, they must give the road its right by lowering the gaze, enjoining good and forbidding evil, and helping those in need. Yes.
