STRAIGHT ROWS

350

“When we stood in line for prayer, the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, placed his hands upon our shoulders and said: ‘Stand in straight rows and do not differ among yourselves, otherwise your hearts will differ. The ones who should stand nearest to me are those who are elderly and the wise. Next to them should be those nearest to them in that respect and so on.’"

Muslim with a chain up to Uqbah son of Amr who related this.
