The Shaykh’s remarks on the hadith: “A man does not stand up for another man from his seat, but make room and widen your seats…”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This is the first issue, and the other issue, which is further removed from people’s reality, is that he enteredThe Shaykh : They do not stand up for him; this is a sunnah (recommended practice), but one of them, who wants to honorThe Shaykh : stands up from his place. It is true that he did not stand up for him in a manner contrary to the previous sunnah (recommended practice); no, he did not do any of that; but he fell into another violation, and this is what I wanted to remind you of, namely his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): This is a method of training the souls of people like us, who are counted among the shaykhs (scholars), because people like us, when they enter a place, do not sit as the sunnah (recommended practice) dictates, where the session ended, but rather they want to sit in the front of the place. People know this nature of the shaykhs (scholars); they have sensitivity and they have respect; and therefore, out of respectThe Shaykh : he stands up for him from his place; but he does not know that he has violated the previous hadith, which is agreed upon byThe Shaykh : them: , and the noble verse is explicit in this meaning…
A man does not stand up for a man from his seat, but make room and expand.
لا يقوم الرجل للرجل من مجلسه ولكن تفسحوا وتوسعواA man does not stand up for a man from his seat, but make room and expand.
لا يقوم الرجل للرجل من مجلسه ولكن تفسحوا وتوسعوا
