Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
It is not Sunnah for the Imam to stand inside the arch. Rather, it is makrooh to stand like this without incapacity. The Sunnah is that Imam Sahib should stand in the middle of Qatar in such a way that the number of worshipers on both sides is equal. Since the arch is built in the middle of Qatar; Therefore, if one stands in the place of prayer in the arch, this sunnat of standing in the middle of the queue is fulfilled. Otherwise standing in the arch is not a separate sunnat. So Imam Sahib will be able to stand in a place other than the mehrab while praying in Jama'at. However, the condition is that Imam Sahib should stand in such a way that the worshipers are on either side of him and the worshipers should not be more or less on either side. The current practice of enlarging Qatar on the right or increasing the number of worshipers is not valid. 9224861546
