The ruling on sitting in the road while giving it its due

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Who said that sitting in the road while giving it its due is disliked, and that it is better to leave it?

Answer:
The apparent meaning of the hadith is that the believer should keep away from sitting; because he may not fulfill the right of the road, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Beware of sittingإياكم والجلوس
, but if it is absolutely necessary, meaning: they desire to sit and need to, then they must give the road its due, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, otherwise caution is better for them.
Q: The statement that it is better to leave it while giving it its due?
A: It is better for them, it is more excellent for them; because they may not give it its due, and they may weaken and not give it its due. And if they are certain that they will give it its due, then that is good, but who is certain of this? And who is able to uphold it?
