The ruling on the congregation saying "We have straightened and aligned" before the takbir of ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q384: The questioner says: When the iqamah is called for the prayer, and when the imam says the phrases intended to straighten the rows, such as saying "Straighten and align," the congregation says in a low voice: "We have straightened and aligned, and upon Allah we rely." What is the validity of this saying?
A384: There is no basis for this saying; therefore, it should not be said, because there is no evidence
for it in this case. The principle regarding supplications and acts of worship is that they must be based on evidence from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and there is no evidence for this; so it must be abandoned.
