When passage is expected:
1. Use a visible upright Sutrah if available.
2. The matn gives about one cubit or more in height.
3. Stand reasonably near it.
4. Keep it slightly to one side — one-eyebrow alignment, with the right preferred in the footnote.
5. If no object is available, the source gives the line-on-ground alternative.
6. Avoid fighting or turning the prayer into a confrontation if someone approaches.
