Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Ali, says: Shaykh, if a person enters a large gathering that includes scholars, students of knowledge, and relatives, who does he begin with, and does he begin with the right side?
Answer:
He starts with the people of virtue first; he starts with the scholar, then he continues to the scholar's right or to the elder of the group. This is what is best. If he enters, greets everyone, and sits down, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
