Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, the author (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned this phrase, and the traveler’s asking for hospitality from whom it is obligatory. So from whom is hospitality obligatory?
Answer:
It is obligatory upon the host who is being visited. If he does not provide hospitality, it is a right that belongs to the guest, and he asks him for it. This is not considered one of the blameworthy types of asking, because he is asking for a right that belongs to him.
