Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1716 — he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ
وَبِهِ : عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ . عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- يَمْسَحُ مَنَاكِبَنَا وَيَقُولُ : اسْتَوُوا ، وَلَا تَخْتَلِفُوا ، فَتَخْتَلِفَ قُلُوبُكُمْ ، لِيَلِيَنِّي مِنْكُمْ أُولُو الْأَحْلَامِ وَالنُّهَى ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (while straightening the rows for prayer) used to touch our shoulders and say: 'Be straight, and do not be uneven (in the rows), or your hearts will become divided. Let those of you who are mature and possess intelligence and understanding be close to me, then those who come after them (in rank), then those who come after them.'"
