Conduct of congregation prayers and khutbah

Just want to mention that for congregation prayer, rows start at the middle.

The only time it should start at a side is if it is the last row that is against a wall and the entrance to the hall is to a side - in which case starting in the middle could constrict other people from getting into the row past the people in the middle.

Otherwise it starts in the middle.

Secondly, the second adhaan at jum'ah is part of the khutbah. Unlike normal adhaan where there are set responses etc that people can read in response to all the calls, this is not the case when it is a part of khutbah, when people should listen attentively.

If someone else is responding to the adhaan, let them as you are not supposed to break your listening attentively to warn others here either.
