Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best rows for men are the front ones and their worst rows are the back ones, and the best rows for women are the back ones and their worst rows are the front ones. O assembly of women, when the men prostrate, you should guard your gaze (so that your eyes do not fall upon their private parts)." Imam Sufyan says: I asked Abdullah bin Abi Bakr, why was this command given to the women? He replied: Because of the tight and short lower garments.
