As in like, does the follower pray standing exactly to the right of the imam or is he two steps behind the imam or what? just asking about positioning and where people stand when its only two people praying together. Jazakallah Khair

two steps behind, to the right
He it is Who sends blessings on you, as do His angels, that He may bring you out from the depths of Darkness into Light: and He is Full of Mercy to the Believers. [Quran {33:43}] www.QuranicAudio.com www.Quran.com
Re: How do two people pray together in a congregation?
found the answer to my own question:
Ibn Abbas r.a narrates '' ..... late in the night, he [The prophet peace be upon him ] got up and performed ablution from a hanging water skin, a light (perfect) ablution and stood up for the prayer. I, too, performed a similar ablution, then I went and stood on his left. He drew me to his right and prayed as much as Allah wished,....'' [Bukhari ]
Thanks to Allah of course, and Jazakallah Khair for everyone's input.
