The Excellence of Standing in the First Row (In Salat)
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: "أَلاَ تَصُفُّونَ كَمَا تَصُفُّ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهَا؟" فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَكَيْفَ تَصُفُّ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهَا؟ قَالَ: "يُتِمُّونَ الصُّفُوفَ الأُوَلَ، وَيَتَرَاصُّونَ فِي الصَّفِّ" ((رَوَاهُ مُسْلِم)).
Jabir bin Samurah (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out to us (once) and said, "Why do you not stand in rows as the angels do before their Rubb?" We asked: "O Messenger of Allah! how do the angels stand in rows before their Rubb?" He (ﷺ) replied, "They complete each row beginning with the first and filling all the gaps." [Muslim].
