Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In some mosques, because of the large number of worshippers, they line up in front of the imam. Is this permissible?
Answer:
No, in front of the imam, no. The prayer of anyone who prays in front of the imam is not valid, meaning if he is between the imam and the qiblah, it is not valid.
