Question:
The first row in the mosque is full, so we want to be the second row. Do we start directly behind the imam, opposite him? Or on the right or left side of the row? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is obligatory to start from the middle of the row, on the side facing the imam. That is, one starts from the point opposite the imam, then the people line up to the right and left. Starting from the middle of the row is like the first row. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
