Arabic text

٢٧٥٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌عَفَّانُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ‌حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ قَالَ: «لَمْ يَكُنْ شَخْصٌ» أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَكَانُوا إِذَا رَأَوْهُ لَمْ يَقُومُوا لِمَا يَعْلَمُونَ مِنْ كَرَاهِيَتِهِ لِذَلِكَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

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.
