The Ruling on Standing for One Who Enters the Assembly

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, a man entered while I was in an assembly with people present, and the attendees stood up for him, but I did not stand. Is it obligatory for me to stand?

Answer:
If the standing is for the sake of greeting him, then it is recommended or strongly recommended. However, if the standing is out of respect for him, then it is not permissible. Yes.
