Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu 'Adil, an Egyptian resident of Riyadh, says: I pray tarawih at home. I pray four rak'ahs, then I say the taslim. I pray four rak'ahs, then I say the taslim, and I pray the shaf' and the witr.

Answer:
Your prayer in the mosque with the Muslims is better than your prayer at home. Your prayer at home is valid, if Allah wills, and you receive reward for it. You may also pray whatever you can of additional prayer after returning home from tarawih. As for praying with the Muslims in the mosques, it is a manifest practice among the practices of Islam, performed in the mosques. Yes.
