The Sunnah of Seeking Permission from the Host Before Leaving

Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with both of them) narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said: “If one of you visits his brother and sits with him, he should not get up until he seeks his permission.”  

Saheeh, as-Saheehah, no. 182

Shaykh al-Albaanee (may Allaah have mercy on him) commented: This hadeeth contains exhortation towards a lofty manner. And this manner is that it is proper for a visitor to stand up except after the visited gives him permission.  So many people in some Arab countries used to violate this noble prophetic directive. You will see them going out of a sitting or gathering without seeking permission. And it is not limited to this alone. Rather [they go out] without saying salaam also.
