With the Presence of a Barrier, the Best of the Women's Rows Are the First

Q: Sister J. A. M. from Riyadh says in her question: We are a group of women who pray in the mosque in Ramadan in a place separated from the men, such that they do not see us and we do not see them. I have noticed that the sisters do not complete the front rows or straighten them, and some of them have cited the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he says: So I told them: This hadith refers to when the women were praying behind the men without a barrier, but now the situation has changed. However, they did not listen to my words. We ask your Eminence to inform us about what is prescribed in this matter, as this is the case in many mosques of the Muslims? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer: The hadith mentioned is authentic, but the scholars of knowledge interpret it as meaning that there is no barrier between the men and the women. As for if they are hidden from the men, then the best of their rows are the first and the worst are the last, just like the men. They must complete the rows, starting with the first, and fill the gaps, just like the men, due to the generality of the authentic hadiths from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this. May Allah guide everyone to what He loves and is pleased with.
