How should one stand with imam in a congregational prayer?

Assalamu Alikum let us learn how to stand with the imam in a congregational prayer in accordance with sunnah of our beloved prophet  (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) .

When  Allah says about the importance of  congregational prayer  he says:“When you (O Messenger Muhammad) are among them, and lead them in As‑Salaah (the prayer), let one party of them stand up [in Salaah (prayer)] with you taking their arms with them; when they finish their prostrations, let them take their positions in the rear and let the other party come up which have not yet prayed, and let them pray with you”[al-Nisa’ 4:102]

How should one stand with imam in a congregational prayer?

If only one man is praying with the imam, then he should stand to the imam’s right, and not on his left, because of the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him), who stayed overnight with his maternal aunt Maymoonah (may Allaah be pleased with her); the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) got up to pray qiyaam al-layl, and Ibn ‘Abbaas stood on his left, and he reached behind him and made him stand on his right. This indicates that if only one person is praying behind the imam, he should stand on the right and not on the left.

But if more than one person is praying behind the imam, then they should stand behind him, and the right side of the row is better than the left which means longer than left side. This applies if the two sides of the row are similar, but if the right side of the row is clearly stretching further than the left, then being on the left and closer to the imam is better.

Based on this, the people praying behind the imam should not all be on the imam’s right to the extent that there is no one on his left except one or two men. That is because what is prescribed in the case of three men is that the imam should be between them, with one man on his right and one on his left; they should not all be on his right. This indicates that the imam should be in the middle of the row or thereabouts. May Allah accept us and all our good deeds and admit us to Jannah.
