The validity of straightening the rows with a pebble

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is mentioned that 'Umar ibn al-Khattab used to straighten the rows with a spear, is this correct?

Answer:
I do not know what I read, but straightening the rows is a required matter. We have mentioned what the scholars said about it, which is that the imam straightens them by speech, meaning he orders the rows to be straight, aligned, and to close the gaps, while he remains in his place. Yes.
