Ride" and the man moved toward the back. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "No, you have more right to the front of your beast, unless you allot it for me." He said: "I have allotted it for you." He said: "So he rode." (Ḥasan)

Commentary
The front of a ride is considered comfortable and a seat of honor and dignity, therefore only the owner has the right to it, except if he offers it to someone because of his love, reverence and respect.
