The Imam’s Movement When the Companions Turned Toward the Ka'bah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: When the people turned in their prayer from the House of Prayer in Jerusalem to the Ka'bah, did the Imam move to the front, or did he remain in his place behind the people?

Answer:
He moved. It is necessary to move. It is necessary to move to a place where they line up behind the Imam facing the direction of the Ka'bah, and the women are behind the men as well. So it is necessary to move.
