Meaning of Hadith 'The best rows for men are the first rows, and the worst ones are the last ones'

Q 6: Does the saying of the Prophet (peace be upon him), The best rows for men (Part No. 6; Page No. 264) are the first rows, and the worst ones are the last ones, and the best rows for women are the last ones and the worst ones for them are the first ones. Mean that women should start their rows from the end of the Masjid (mosque) and when the first row becomes complete the following one starts in front of it and they continue in this way?


A: The meaning of the Hadith is that if women are offering Salah (Prayer) in lines behind men, the best line is the last one for it is more veiled from men. However, if women are already veiled, such as being in a separate place, the first row for them is, like men, the best one owing to the absence of the prohibiting cause.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
