فلو على المائدة لا ينبغي أن يقعد بل يخرج معرضا لقوله تعالى : - { فلا تقعد بعد الذكرى مع القوم الظالمين }

در المختار ( قوله لا ينبغي أن يقعد ) أي يجب عليه قال في الاختيار لأن استماع اللهو حرام والإجابة سنة والامتناع عن الحرام أولى ا هـ وكذا إذا كان على المائدة قوم يغتابون لا يقعد فالغيبة أشد من اللهو واللعب تتارخانية رد المحتار
