NO ONE SHOULD BE TOLD TO VACATE HIS SEAT

It is related by Abdullah Ibne 'Umar radhiyallahu anhumaa that the Apostle of Allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, "No one should tell anyone to get up (from his seat) and take his seat. On the contrary, people should make room for those who come (and offer them their seats )."

Bukhaari, Muslim

COMMENTARY:
While it is forbidden to occupy anyone's seat by telling him to vacate it, if a person voluntarily gets up and offers his seat to anyone, he will be deserving of the Divine Reward in accordance with the intention.

It is related by Aboo Hurayrah radhiyallahu anhu that the Apostle of Allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, "Whoever leaves his seat (for some reason), and then comes back, has a greater claim to it."

Muslim
