How to offer Salat MAKING OF
ROWS (SAFBANDEE): All to stand
shoulder to shoulder, in a manner as if a lead molten wall. Every one to
stand, shoulder to shoulder, foot to foot. Shoulders
and necks should not be ahead of each other but straight in a line, row. Even the
chests ought to be in a straight line, not bulging in front or backward. The rows
(Suffs) should be close to each other. Once Aqamat
is over, then not to run to join in the row, instead walking gracefully join
the row. Not to make
a suff (row) in between the two pillars. A man, not
to stand alone in a row, (Suff). However, a
woman may stand alone. If a man, by
mistake, has offered salat alone in a row (Suff), then he must repeat the
salat. If by chance
there happens to be a wall in between the Imam and the followers, then the
salat will be considered as rightfully offered. In case
there are only two persons for salat, then the follower ought to stand on
the right side of the Imam, shoulder to shoulder, however, if there are
three persons, then the Imam to stand ahead of the followers. To make the
rows (Suffs) joined, not to create gap in between. Try the
best, to find a place in the first row, as it is greatly virtuous. If in a
"Jamaat" of two persons, the third one joins, the imam should push behind
both the followers by holding them with their hands. Adults and
the wiser, should occupy the front rows, then accordingly, merit wise, keep
on standing in rows. Women to
organize their rows behind the rows of the men. Aqamat to
be pronounced first, then on seeing the imam coming, to get up for making
the rows, and all the rows (Suffs) to be in order before the imam takes his
place for leading the salat. (Saheeh Bukhari, Saheeh Muslim) Imam too,
should monitor the formation of rows, showing emphasis in excess. The "Imam"
to walk through the rows, place his hand on followers shoulders and chests,
saying stand in a straight line, do not move ahead or backward. For More Details Regarding
