SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised his followers to keep their rows straight and orderly during prayer, and to have the wise and mature stand closest to him.

Let those who are mature and wise stand closest to me, then those who are next to them, then those who are next to them"'. Abu Mas'ud said: Today, there is much disharmony among you. ,Abu 'Abdur-Rabin (An-Nasai)said: (One of the narrators) Abu Ma'mar's name is 'Abdullah bin Sakhbarah.
