[58] Surah Al-Mujadilah [The Woman Who Pleads]: Ayat 011

১১. মুমিনগণ, যখন তোমাদেরকে বলা হয়ঃ মজলিসে স্থান প্রশস্ত করে দাও, তখন তোমরা স্থান প্রশস্ত করে দিও।  আল্লাহ তোমাদের জন্য প্রশস্ত করে দিবেন। যখন বলা হয়ঃ উঠে যাও, তখন উঠে যেয়ো। তোমাদের মধ্যে যারা ঈমানদার এবং যারা জ্ঞানপ্রাপ্ত, আল্লাহ তাদের মর্যাদা উচ্চ করে দিবেন। আল্লাহ খবর রাখেন যা কিছু তোমরা কর।

Ayat 11. O you who believe! When you are told to make room in the assemblies, (spread out and) make room. Allah will give you (ample) room (from His Mercy). And when you are told to rise up [for prayers, Jihad (holy fighting in Allah’s Cause), or for any other good deed], rise up. Allah will exalt in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge. And Allah is Well-Acquainted with what you do.

Tafseer of Surah Al- Mujadilah Ayat 11. O ye who believe! When ye are told to make room in the assemblies, (spread out and) make room: (ample) room will Allah provide for you. And when ye are told to rise up, rise up Allah will rise up, to (suitable) ranks (and degrees), those of you who believe and who have been granted (mystic) Knowledge. And Allah is well- acquainted with all ye do. Even when a great man or a Leader comes into an Assembly, we are not to press forward without discipline, as it causes inconvenience to him and detriment to public business. Nor are we to shut out other people who have equal rights to be in the Assembly. We must spread out, for Allah's earth is spacious, and so are our opportunities. Rising up is a mark of respect. Just as those who obey soon become worthy of command, so those who honour where honour is due, become themselves worthy of honour, in various degrees according to their capacities. "Rise up" may also here imply: 'when the Assembly is dismissed, do not loiter about'. Faith makes all people equal in the Kingdom of Allah , as regards the essentials of citizenship in the Kingdom. But there is leadership, and rank and degree, joined with greater or less responsibility, and that depends on true knowledge and insight. 

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "When a group of people assemble for the remembrance of Allah, the angels surround them (with their wings), (Allah's) mercy envelops them, Sakinah, or tranquility descends upon them and Allah makes a mention of them before those who are near Him.''  [Muslim Book 35, Chapter 11, Hadith # 6518].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Mujadilah Ayat 11. Allah will exalt in degree those of you who believe, and those who have been granted knowledge." This Hadith also highlights the merits of remembrance of Allah and the high grades of the people indulging in it.
