Al-Hajj 22:32

ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ شَعَـٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا مِن تَقْوَى ٱلْقُلُوبِ

Thalika waman yuAAaththimshaAAa-ira Allahi fa-innaha min taqwaalquloob

That [is so]. And whoever honors the symbols [i.e., rites] of Allāh - indeed, it is from the piety of hearts.

Whoever honours the symbols of Allah, indeed it is from the piety of hearts.

Sahih al-Bukhari 615, Sahih Muslim 437

The first row

لَوْ يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ مَا فِي النِّدَاءِ وَالصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ لَمْ يَجِدُوا إِلَّا أَنْ يَسْتَهِمُوا عَلَيْهِ لَاسْتَهَمُوا

Law ya'lamu-n-nasu ma fi-n-nida'i wa-s-saffi-l-awwal, thumma lam yajidu illa an yastahimu alayhi la-stahamu.

If the people knew what reward is in the call to prayer and the first row, and they could only obtain it by drawing lots, they would draw lots.
