Where does the row begin?
Question: 21879
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
The first row in prayer should begin behind the imaam, then stretch to the right and the left, not from the farthest point to the right as mentioned in the question. The same applies to the second and subsequent rows.
