Lessons from the Hadith

1- It is essential to leave the doubtful things.

2- Leaving doubtful things protects one's Deen because if he were to do it and it was Haram, it would have harmed him.

3- It is difficult to live honorably when doing the doubtful because when people see someone doing it, they will no longer respect him.

4- One cannot continue doing the doubtful when one knows of an alternative with certainty.

5- Doubtful things weaken ones Imaan and leads to indulge in haram later.

6- Halal is enough for a believer with the grace of Allah (s.w.t) so we must avoid doubtful things to protect our deen
