Summary
This ruling explains that differences in floor level inside a mosque do not prevent congregational prayer. Worshippers standing at a lower or higher level are still within the same mosque and pray in congregation with the imam.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Walaupun lantai tidak sama rata, ia masih berada dalam satu masjid dan berjamaah bersama imam.
