Offering Tarawih Prayer at home

230

Q 6: Is it permissible for a man to offer Tarawih (special supererogatory night Prayer in Ramadan) at home and not go to the Masjid (mosque)?

A: It is permissible to offer the supererogatory Salah (Prayer), such as Tarawih, at home, but he will miss (Part No. 7; Page No. 203) the benefits of the congregation and going to the Masjid. It is obligatory on him to maintain the Faridah (obligatory) Salah in congregation in the Masjid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
