Or is it optional, and only required for men?","answer":"Imam Shafi recommends that women keep their feet together and avoid extending their bodies during ruku (bowing) and sujud (prostration). He believes that this aligns more closely with the teachings and values of sacred law, which consistently emphasize modesty. For men, it is recommended to keep the feet approximately a hand-span apart, equivalent to about ten inches.","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fe60b76658b4c232875","tag":"Salah: Congregational","count":92},{"_id":"668d9fe30b76658b4c232826","tag":"Worship: Etiquettes","count":79},{"_id":"668d9fe00b76658b4c2327c8","tag":"Women: Other","count":52}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:40:45.491Z"}
