Hadith of Al-Nu'man ibn Bashir (RA) from the Prophet (SAW)
حديث النعمان بن بشير (1) عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
Hadith 652:54
Husayn ibn Ali narrated to us, from Za'idah, from Simak, from al-Nu'man ibn Bashir, who said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) used to straighten us in the rows, until it was as if he were aligning arrows with us. Then, when he intended to say the takbir, he saw a man whose chest was protruding. He said: "You shall straighten your rows, or Allah will surely cause discord between your faces."
حدثنا حسين بن علي، عن زائدة، عن سماك، عن النعمان بن بشير، قال: كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يسوينا في الصفوف، حتى كأنما يحاذي بنا القداح، فلما أراد أن يكبر، رأى رجلا شاخصا صدره، فقال: " لتسون صفوفكم، أو ليخالفن الله بين وجوهكم "
