Moving in salaah to fill the gaps in the saff
Question
1. How many saffs (rows) can we cross while in the state of namaaz in order to fill the front saffs (rows)?
2. How much can we move horizontally in the same saff (row) in order to fill the gap?
Answer
In the state of namaaz if one moves more than three steps at once then the namaaz will break.
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.
