Question

If a husband and wife are performing salah individually in the same room, is there any basis of the wife not being allowed to be ahead of her husband in standing?

Answer

The law of remaining behind the husband only pertains to the situation where they are performing Salaah in jamaat.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
