The Blessed Youth of the Beloved Rasool صلی اللہ تعالیٰ علیہ وآلہ وسلم
Let’s listen to the Sunan and manners of walking with the intention of acting upon Sunnahs:
1. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has said in Surah Bani Israel, part 15, Ayah 37:
وَ لَا تَمْشِ فِی الْاَرْضِ مَرَحًاۚ-اِنَّكَ لَنْ تَخْرِقَ الْاَرْضَ وَ لَنْ تَبْلُغَ الْجِبَالَ طُوْلًا(۳۷)
Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And do not walk arrogantly on the earth; undoubtedly, you cannot tear the earth and nor can you reach height of the mountains. (Part 15, Bani Israel, Ayah 37)
The Beloved and Blessed Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘A man wearing two shawls was strutting [i.e. walking arrogantly]. He was sunk into the ground and he will continue to sink until the Day of Judgement. (Sahih Muslim, pp. 1156, Hadees 2088)
When the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم walked, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would lean a little bit forward as though he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was descending from a height. (Shumaail-ut-Tirmizi, pp. 87, Hadees 118)
If there is no hindrance, walk on the side of the pathway at a medium pace. Neither walk so fast that people start looking at you in surprise, nor walk too slowly that people consider you to be ill.
It is not Sunnah to look here and there (unnecessarily) while walking. Walk in a dignified manner with your gaze lowered.
While walking or coming up or down the stairs, make sure that your shoes do not make noise.
If two women are standing or walking on the way, do not pass them by walking in between them. It is prohibited in a blessed Hadees to do so.
