Q: I live in a villa adjacent to the Masjid (mosque) from its southern direction. (Part No. 6; Page No. 267)
I prepared the attached courtyard of the villa to offer the obligatory Salah (Prayer) as well as Salat-ul-Tarawih (Voluntary night Salah performed in Ramadan) there. I and the women who visit me follow the Imam of the Masjid
where we hear his voice through the loudspeakers. We also installed a special loudspeaker for the house attached by a wire. Sometimes, I offer Salah individually inside the villa led by the Imam whose voice I hear over the loudspeakers.My question is: Is offering Salah individually after the Imam permissible whether inside the villa or in the courtyard attached to the Masjid? Some people have caused me to doubt this; could you kindly advise? May Allah reward you!
A:
Your Salah behind the Imam in the manner which you described is invalid, unless you are able to see the Imam or at least the followers. Your Musalla (praying place) is away from the Masjid, so it is not permissible to follow him except if the conditions we mentioned exist.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
