What are the Manners of Sitting? By Al-'Allaamah Naasiruddeen al-Albaanee
We begin with the Name of Allaah
Question: What are the Manners of Sitting?
Answer: They should sit close together in gatherings. This is found in many of the rulings of the Sharee'ah.
The Hadeeth of Jaabir ibn Samurah - reported in Muslim: That the Messenger (Saws) entered the mosque one day and found the Companions sitting separately and so said: "Why is it that I find you sitting apart?"
Imaam Ahmad reports in his 'musnad' with good isnaad from Aboo Tha'labah al-Khushanee (Ra) who said: "When we travelled with the Messenger (Saws) and alighted at a place, we used to disperse through the mountain passes and valleys. So once we travelled and alighted as we used to, so he said: "Indeed your being separate in these passes and valleys is from the work of shaitaan." He said, "So after that when we alighted at a place we came together to the extent that if a carpet were to have been placed under us we would have fitted on it."
