Is it prescribed that the pillars of the prayer be similar in length, whether prolonged or shortened?

Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. Sometimes, Honorable Shaykh, the imam of the mosque prolongs one of the prostrations, and also prolongs one of the units of prayer over the others. Should the units of prayer be equal?

Answer:
Yes, the prayer should be balanced. If he prolongs the standing, he should prolong the bowing and prostration. If he shortens the standing, he should shorten the bowing and prostration. If he takes a middle course, he should take a middle course in the bowing and prostration, so that his prayer is balanced. Yes.
