Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 3562 — Straightening the row
٣٥٦٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: (حدثنا) (١) هشيم بن بشير قال أخبرنا حميد (عن) (٢) ⦗٢٧٣⦘ أنس قال: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "اعتدلوا في صفوفكم (وتراصوا) (٣) فإني أراكم من وراء ظهري". قال أنس: لقد رأيت أحدنا يلزق منكبه بمنكب صاحبه، وقدمه بقدمه، ولو (ذهبت تفعل) (٤) ذلك لترى أحدهم كأنه بغل شموس (٥).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Keep your rows level and stand close together, for I see you from behind my back." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I have seen each of us join his shoulder to his companion's shoulder and his foot to his foot; and if you tried to do that today, you would see one of them shy away like a restive mule."
