Arranging the Prayers in the Rows and the Circle of the Gathering

Question:
It is not hidden from Your Eminence that many of the people present in this mosque form a circle around the gathering every Friday night. When the prayer is called, they go to the back rows, which results in confusion and disorder among the worshippers, or crowding. What is Your Eminence’s opinion if these people who circle the gathering formed the first row, thereby solving the problem? I ask Allah

Answer:
However, as long as the sound reaches, what is required is that everyone be in rows, so that they choose the first row, then the second, then the third. As long as the sound reaches, and praise be to Allah, and the speakers reach, there is no need for circling or such methods. In fact, this may cause confusion for everyone, and it may lead to crowding at the imam, or it may cause some people in the second or third row to be squeezed. They should be in the first row, then the second, then the third, so that no one is confused and no one is harmed. Yes.
