Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man prays with his wife, does she pray behind him or beside him?

Answer:
She prays behind him, and the woman’s position is behind the man. However, some jurists say there is no harm as long as she is his wife; there is no harm in her being beside him. Yes.
