Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (O you who believe! When it is said to you, “Make room in the assemblies,” then make room, for Allah will make room for you)]

We return to the topic of our discussion, where we had reached the saying of Allah the Exalted:
O you who have believed, when you are told, "Space yourselves" in assemblies, then make space; Allah will make space for you.يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا فِي الْمَجَالِسِ فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ
[Al-Mujadilah: 11] (Make room) meaning: create space and expand,And his statement:
when you are toldإِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ
[At-Tawbah 9:38]
This includes whether the one who said it was the person entering or the one managing the assembly, and for this reason you find that the verb (it was said) was used without mentioning the speaker, to include both this and that,For example: If the assembly has a manager who seats the people and says to some of them: Make room so so-and-so can sit, then let them make room, or if a man enters and the assembly is crowded with those sitting and he says: Make room, then let them make room. And what is the reward for those who make room?Their reward is like their deed: (Allah will make room for you) He will expand for you the matters that are difficult for you in your religion and your worldly affairs, and this is a great reward for a small deed. They used to sit with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and people from the senior Companions, from the people of Badr or others, would come to the assembly and stand; because they could not find a place, and perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say to the people: Make room,And perhaps these standing people would say: Make room, so Allah the Exalted commanded the one to whom the command to make room was directed to make room and explained its consequences.
