Standing up a young person from a seat so that an elder may sit in his place

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to stand up a young person from a seat so that an elder may sit in his place?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to stand up a young person from a seat for an elder to sit in, unless this young person is his son or his servant, in which case there is no harm. However, if he is one of the people who has no authority over him, he should not be made to stand up.
