Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostles (صلى الله عليه وسلم)said, "The worst of all mankind is the double-faced one, who comes to some people with one countenance and to others, with another countenance"

إِنَّمَا ٱلنَّجۡوَىٰ مِنَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ لِيَحۡزُنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَلَيۡسَ بِضَآرِّهِمۡ شَيۡـًٔا إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ
Secret counsels (conspiracies) are only from Shaitan (Satan), in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as Allah permits, and in Allah let the believers put their trust.
English - Ibn Kathir
An-Najwa are only from the Shaytan, in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as Allah permits. And in Allah let the believers put their trust.
Allah states that secret talks, where the believers feel anxious, are
مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ لِيَحْزُنَ الَّذِينَ امَنُوا
(only from Shaytan, in order that he may cause grief to the believers).
meaning, that those who hold such counsels do so because of the lures of the devil,
لِيَحْزُنَ الَّذِينَ امَنُوا
(in order that he may cause grief to the believers).
The devil seeks to bother the believers, even though his plots will not harm the believers, except if Allah wills it.
Those who are the subject of evil Najwa, should seek refuge in Allah and put his trust in Him, for none of it will harm them, Allah willing. The Sunnah also forbids the Najwa so that no Muslim is bothered by it.
Imam Ahmad recorded that Abdullah bin Mas`ud said that the Messenger of Allah said,
إِذَا كُنْتُمْ ثَلَثَةً فَلَ يَتَنَاجَى اثْنَانِ دُونَ صَاحِبِهِمَا فَإِنَّ ذلِكَ يُحْزِنُه
If you were three, then two of you should not hold a secret counsel in the presence of the third person, because that would cause him to be worried.
This Hadith is collected in the Two Sahihs using a chain of narration that contained Al-A`mash.
Abdur-Razzaq narrated that Abdullah bin Umar said that Allah's Messenger said,
إِذَا كُنْتُمْ ثَلَثَةً فَلَ يَتَنَاجَى اثْنَانِ دُونَ الثَّالِثِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ فَإِنَّ ذلِكَ يُحْزِنُه
If you were three, then two of you should not hold a secret counsel in the presence of the third person, except with his permission, because that would cause him to be worried.

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.

Manners for Assemblies
Allah teaches His servants good manners and orders them to be kind to each other when they are sitting together,
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ امَنُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا فِي الْمَجَالِسِ
O you who believe!
When you are told to make room in the assemblies,
فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ
make room. Allah will give you room.
Indeed, the reward or recompense depends on the type of action.
In a Hadith, the Prophet said,
مَنْ بَنَىىِللهِ مَسْجِدًا بَنَى اللهُ لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّة
Whoever builds a Masjid for Allah, Allah builds for him a house in Paradise.
In another Hadith, the Prophet said,
وَمَنْ يَسَّرَ عَلى مُعْسِرٍ يَسَّرَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالاْخِرَةِ وَاللهُ فِي عَوْنِ الْعَبْدِ مَا كَانَ الْعَبْدُ فِي عَوْنِ أَخِيه
He who relieves a difficulty for a person living in straitened circumstances, then Allah will relieve the difficulties of this life and the Hereafter for him. Surely, Allah helps the servant as long as the servant helps his brother.
There are many similar Hadiths.
This is why Allah the Exalted said,
فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ
(make room. Allah will give you room).
Qatadah said,
"This Ayah was revealed about gatherings in places where Allah is being remembered. When someone would come to join in assemblies with the Messenger, they would hesitate to offer them space so that they would not loose their places. Allah the Exalted commanded them to spread out and make room for each other."
Imam Ahmad and Imam Ash-Shafi`i recorded that Abdullah bin Umar said that the Messenger of Allah said,
لَاا يُقِمِ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ مِنْ مَجْلِسِهِ فَيَجْلِسَ فِيهِ وَلَكِنْ تَفَسَّحُوا وَتَوَسَّعُوا
One of you should not remove someone from his place and sit in it, but instead, spread out and make room.
This Hadith is recorded in the Two Sahihs.
Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Prophet said,
لَاا يُقِمِ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ مِنْ مَجْلِسِهِ ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ فِيهِ وَلَكِنِ افْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللهُ لَكُم
A man should not remove another man from his place and then sit in it. Rather spread out and make room and Allah will make room for you.
Imam Ahmad also recorded this Hadith with the wording:
لَاا يَقُومُ الرَّجُلُ لِلرَّجُلِ مِنْ مَجْلِسِهِ وَلَكِنِ افْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللهُ لَكُم
A man should not leave his place for another man, but rather spread out and make room, and Allah will make room for you.
It has been reported that Ibn `Abbas, Al-Hasan Al-Basri and others said that:
إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا فِي الْمَجَالِسِ
فَافْسَحُوا يَفْسَحِ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ
When you are told to make room in the assemblies, make room. Allah will give you room.
means to war assemblies,
and that,
وَإِذَا قِيلَ انشُزُوا فَانشُزُوا
And when you are told to rise up, then rise up.
means, "Get up to fight."
Qatadah said
وَإِذَا قِيلَ انشُزُوا فَانشُزُوا
(And when you are told to rise up, then rise up). means,
"When you are called to any type of good, then respond."

means, do not think that if one of you makes room for his brother, or rises up when he is commanded to do so, that this will diminish his right or honor. Rather, this will increase his virtue and status with Allah, and Allah the Exalted will never make his good deed be lost. To the contrary, He will reward him for it in this life and the Hereafter. Surely, he who humbles himself by and before the command of his Lord, then Allah will elevate his status and make him known by his good behavior. the statement of Allah the Exalted,

meaning, surely, Allah is Aware of those who deserve this reward and those who are not worthy of it.
Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu At-Tufayl `Amir bin Wathilah said,
Nafi` bin Abdul--Harith met Umar bin Al-Khattab in the area of Usfan. Umar appointed Abu At-Tufayl to be the governor of Makkah. Umar asked him,
"Whom did you appoint as your deputy for the valley people (that is, Makkah)."
Amir said, "I appointed Ibn Abza, one of our freed slaves, as my deputy."
Umar said, "You made a freed slave their governor in your absence"
He said, "O Leader of the faithful! He has memorized Allah's Book and has knowledge of regulations of inheritance, along with being a proficient judge."
Umar said, "Surely, your Prophet has said,
إِنَّ اللهَ يَرْفَعُ بِهذَا الْكِتَابِ قَوْمًا وَيَضَعُ بِهِ اخَرِين
Verily, Allah elevates some people and degrades others, on account of this Book."
