Re: imam changing place afer fard prayer

Question:

  Must the imam change place after the fard prayer if he wants to pray the sunnah? Please give dalil

Answer:
It is Makruuh for him to pray in the same place, because the Prophet ordered to move a little from the place of the Fard. This is more important for the Imam to avoid confusion as to what prayer he is in, but also encouraged for followers.
