Shoulder to Shoulder, Not Feet to Feet!
Muhammad Yusuf Danka
The Muqtadi should join their shoulders with others in the row either side of them (the feet should not be so far apart that shoulders cannot be joined) and not leave any space between each other. The feet and chest should face towards the Qibla. No individual should be slightly forward or behind the others (they should all be in one ‘straight’ line.)
The Imam should stand in a central position to the rows behind him the Muqtadis should form rows, completing the front rows first.
