DO NOT OCCUPY ANOTHER'S PLACE

Sayyiduna Sa'eed ibn Abu Hasan رحمه الله (a glorious tabi'ee and brother of Hasan Basri) said, "Abu Bakrah رضى الله عنه came to us in connection with a testimony (he had to give). A man stood up from his place for him (to sit on) but, he declined to sit in it and said, 'The Prophet ﷺ has forbidden it, And, the prophet ﷺ also forbade that one should wipe his hand on the garment of another person to whom he had not provided clothing.'
