Chapter on What is Reported Regarding Straightening the Rows
Hadith 375
حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ " كَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِتَسْوِيَةِ الصُّفُوفِ ، فَإِذَا جَاءُوهُ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ ، أَنْ قَدِ اسْتَوَتْ كَبَّرَ "
It is narrated from Hazrat Nafi that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) used to order the people to straighten the rows, and when the people informed him that the rows had been straightened, he would then say the takbeer.
Hadith 376
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ أَبِي سُهَيْلِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : كُنْتُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَقَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَأَنَا أُكَلِّمُهُ فِي أَنْ يَفْرِضَ لِي ، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُكَلِّمُهُ وَهُوَ يُسَوِّي الْحَصْبَاءَ بِنَعْلَيْهِ ، حَتَّى جَاءَهُ رِجَالٌ قَدْ كَانَ وَكَلَهُمْ بِتَسْوِيَةِ الصُّفُوفِ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ ، أَنَّ الصُّفُوفَ قَدِ اسْتَوَتْ فَقَالَ لِي : " اسْتَوِ فِي الصَّفِّ " ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ
It is narrated from Malik bin Abi Amir Asbahi that I was with Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), when the call for prayer (takbeer) was made, and I continued talking to him, because I wanted him to assign me some stipend, and he was straightening pebbles with his shoes, until those people arrived who were appointed to straighten the rows, and they informed him that the rows had been straightened. Then he said to me: Join the row, and then he said the takbeer.
