The ruling on pressing feet together in the prayer row

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner asks: What is the ruling on requesting that feet be pressed together in the prayer row?

Answer:
Meaning, squeezing the person next to you is not permissible. But you should get close, get close, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Align your feet and get close. So, that is enough. Is it necessary to press them together and squeeze the person next to you, or harm him? He may not like it, or it may be something he dislikes and does not want you to press against him. So, get close, get close as much as possible, so that there is no gap between you. There should be no gap between you through which Satan can slip in. Yes.
