My question is, during the janaza prayer, why do we have to form an odd number of rows? Everywhere, in everything about Islam, the odd number is preferred. And the reason why has been explained by the Holy Founder of Islam, that God is an odd number, so he likes you to prefer odd number, a sort of reminder to you that God is odd.
But then the Christians may say that our God is also odd number, that is three. But when the Muslim system, the numerical system is observed, and the prayer rakat, as they are ordained for us, are observed, you will be surprised that not only in janaza, in everything this odd number is preferred to the even number. The total number of rakat in one day of both of farais, that is obligatory prayers, is odd, as well as the total number of rakat said to be the optional prayers is odd again. So it is odd but not odd. You know what I mean? Assalamu alaikum.
