Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Is closing the gaps in the prayer rows done by placing the foot next to the foot, or by simply standing side by side?

Drawing close and standing tightly together in the rows is something the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded, and
They leave gaps between them for Satanيدعون بينهم فرجا للشيطان
However, if they close the gaps and stand tightly together, they take the opportunity away from Satan. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh,
