THE STANDING (SALAAMI)
Whenever the remembrance of a beloved or any good news is heard, to stand up at that time is preferred (Mustahab) and the Sunnah of the Sahaaba and Salaf.
Hadrat Uthman (ra) states that once, upon giving Hadrat Abu Bakr Siddique (ra) some good news, “… He stood up and said, “May my parents be sacrificed on you! The person truly worthy of this is you.” – Mishkaat, Kitaabul-Imaan, Section 3.
Under the commentary of the ayat, ” محمد رسول اللہ” Tafseer Roohul-Bayaan states that a gathering of Ulama was present with Imam Taqi’uddin Subki (ra) .When a Naath reciter read two verses of Naath Sharif. “Immediately, Imam Subki (ra) and all those present in the gathering stood up. A great delight was attained through this gathering.”
If a Kaafir is the leader and chief of his people and there is hope that he will embrace Islam, to stand in his respect when he approaches is Sunnah. Thus, when Hadrat Umar (ra) presented him in the Holy Prophet’s ﷺ court to accept Islam, the Prophetﷺ stood up and embraced him.
Alamghiri states, “If a Zimmi Kaafir comes to a Muslim and the latter stands up for him in the hope that he will accept Islam, it is permissible.” – Kitaabul-Karaahiyat, Baabu Ahliz-Zimma
Makrooh Standing
Standing at the time of drinking water besides Zam-Zam and leftover water from wudhu (without an excuse) is Makrooh.
Stand in the respect of a materialistic person (dunyadaar) in greed of materialism without an eligible excuse.
Standing in the respect of a kaafir solely for the reason of his wealth is Makrooh.
Stand in respect for a person who wants people to respect him is prohibited.
To like people standing for you is also prohibited.
Ashiatul-Lam’aat states…..that the practice of performing or not performing the Standing of Respect (Qiyaame-Tazimi) changes in relation to time, condition and personalities. Accordingly, the Sahaaba sometimes stood for the Holy Prophetﷺ! Sometimes didn’t.” The dislike of the Holy Prophetﷺ. towards standing for him was based on humility and humbleness.
Shaikh Abdul-Haqq (ra) writes … …“Standing itself is not disliked (Makrooh). Rather, wanting people to stand is. If the person does not wish standing for himself, it is not Makrooh to stand up for him. Imam Qaadhi Ayaadh (ra) has said, “Standing in the manner that the person sits while those around him stand is prohibited. Standing in Respect (Qtyaame Tazimi) for worldly people is Makrooh and many warnings have been given about doing so.” – Ashiatut-Lam ‘aat
Mishkaat state under the Hadith ‘Qoomu ila Sayyidikurn’ (Stand for your leader), “Imam Nawawi (ra) writes, “This proves the practice of showing respect to pious elders; meeting and standing for them. The majority of Ulama have used this to substantiate that this standing is not from amongst the prohibited types. It is only prohibited when people stand around a person who is sitting and remain standing while he sits.” Kitaabul-JiJuul, Baobu Hukmil-Usraa
