Is it obligatory or sunnat to straighten the rows of Jamaat? 1749143186
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
Although some people say that it is obligatory to straighten the rows of the congregation, according to reliable sources, it is mu'aqqadah in the Sunnah to straighten the rows of prayers. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) himself used to straighten the qatar and put a lot of emphasis on it. According to a hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "Straighten your qatar, otherwise Allaah will change your appearance." According to another tradition, ‘You will create discord in your hearts.’ If the qatar of the prayer congregation is not straight, then it is the duty of the Imam to straighten the qatar. If necessary, Imam Sahib can also appoint someone in charge to straighten the back rows. 4293621767
