Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If one end of the row in prayer is longer than the other, what is required of the imam?
Answer:
The imam should check the rows before he says the takbir, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. He orders the worshippers to straighten the rows, and part of straightening them is adjusting them so they are even, with the imam in the middle. He said (peace and blessings be upon him): the rows, and the imam is in the middle. Yes.
