يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا فِي الْمَجَالِسِ فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا قِيلَ انشُزُوا فَانشُزُوا يَرْفَعِ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ دَرَجَاتٍ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ

"O you who have believed, when you are told, "Space yourselves" in assemblies, then make space; Allah will make space for you. And when you are told, "Arise," then arise; Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do."

اے ایمان والو! جب تم سے کہا جائے کہ مجلسوں میں جگہ کشادہ کرو تو کشادہ کر دو، اللہ تمہارے لیے کشادگی کرے گا۔ اور جب کہا جائے کہ اٹھو تو اٹھ جاؤ، اللہ تم میں سے ایمان والوں کو اور جن کو علم دیا گیا ہے انہیں درجات میں بلند کرے گا۔ اور اللہ تمہارے اعمال سے باخبر ہے۔

Explanation

This verse teaches important etiquette for gatherings and assemblies, particularly in the presence of the Prophet or during religious gatherings. Making space for others demonstrates consideration and humility, while Allah promises to make space (provide relief and blessings) for those who show such courtesy. The verse then mentions that Allah elevates both believers and those given knowledge in degrees, highlighting the special status of scholars and learned individuals in Islam. This teaches that knowledge, combined with faith, leads to elevated status with Allah. The verse concludes by reminding that Allah is aware of all actions, encouraging sincere behavior rather than mere outward compliance.

Context

This verse appears in Surah Al-Mujadilah (The Pleading Woman), which addresses various social and community issues. It emphasizes proper conduct in gatherings and the elevated status of knowledge in Islam.
