Presenting the father or the elder in the gathering

The Shaykh:
Yes. Abu Nabil, something.

The questioner:
(peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
No, no, this is a rule, this is a legal rule that the elder is given precedence for his age, he is given precedence for his age out of respect for him. In the hadith We honor our elder and show mercy to our younger one. Honoring the elder is part of the Sunnah, and it is part of the Sunnah to honor the elderly Muslim. There are many hadiths on this, including giving him precedence in speech, in going out, and in sitting. One of the ways of glorifying Allah is honoring the elderly Muslim.

The questioner:
By Allah, the father is the elder over him. The father, and in my opinion, if there is someone older, the father is the elder over them.

The Shaykh:
If you have your father and you have someone older than him in age.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
If you are placing the back, start with the elder. If it is an act of the Sunnah, start with the elder.

Another questioner:

What Allah willed, Muhammad and his family and his companions. Guidance on the channel. Guidance on the channel. Praise be to Allah. Praise be to Allah. It is easy, it is easy. There is no god but Allah. Allah, there is no god but Allah.

The Shaykh:
There is no god but Allah. And if your father is affected if you do not start with him, start with your father. But if he is not affected, you give precedence to the elder.
