Performing Salaah on the 1st and 2nd floor of a musjid

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: In few mosques there are arrangements to offer prayer with jamat on 1st and/or 2nd floor along with the ground floor. I heard from some elder person that if the distance from one row (of jamat) to the subsequent row is greater than 2 row’s size than prayer of the person of the subsequent row will not be valid. Hence if the roof’s height of the ground floor is higher than the 2 row’s size then the prayer of the person (offering prayer) in jamat on 1st floor will not be valid. Is this case true?

Bismillaah

A: This is not correct.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
