Sayyiduna Sahl bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) states: The people of the upper region (al-Aliyah) said: "O Messenger of Allah, we have no choice but to sit together like this." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then fulfil the right of the gatherings." The people said: "What is the right of the gatherings?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Remembering Allah Almighty abundantly, guiding people on the way and lowering the gaze."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains Abu Bakr bin Abd al-Rahman al-Ansari, a Tabi'i whom I do not know. The rest of its narrators have been declared trustworthy.
