Commentary
In the era of ignorance, and unfortunately these days too, people in authority are in the habit, and they want for their authority, position and honor, that the people should remain standing still without making any movements just like a statue upon their arrival. Nevertheless, if a coming person does not want people to stand for him at all, but the people stand wholeheartedly and go forward to welcome him for the respect of his knowledge, righteousness, nobility and honor, there is no harm in it.
