The reward of prayer in the right-hand rows
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, the angels pray for the people in the right-hand rows. If these right-hand rows are filled with worshippers, and my intention, Honorable Shaykh, is to be on the right side of the row, does the reward include me even though I am early?
Answer:
If you cannot hear the imam and cannot see him, then you should be in the place where you can hear the imam, even if it is on the left side of the row rather than the right. Being close to the imam is undoubtedly better, whether on the right or on the left. Being close to the imam, hearing the imam, seeing the imam, and following him is better. Yes.
