Sunan Abi Dawud 663 (Book 2, Hadith 273) #20954
The Importance of Straightening Rows in Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught his followers to stand in prayer in straight rows, and encouraged them to be regular and orderly. He also said that Allah and His Angels bless those who are near the first rows.

Al-Nu’man b. Bashir said: the prophet used to straighten us in the rows of prayer as the arrow is straightened, until he thought that we had learned it from him and understood it. One day he turned towards us, and shoulders in order, and say; Do not be irregular. And he would say: Allah and his Angels bless those who near the first rows.
