A man pressing against another man when lining up for prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on a man pressing against another man when lining up for prayer?
Answer:
This is something that has no basis; rather, you should draw close to one another. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) advised closing the gaps and drawing close so that no gap remains in the rows. It is not sufficient for you to place your foot next to the foot of the person beside you; squeeze in tightly, for perhaps this will lead to disapproval of it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
