The ruling on leaving the congregation if a person does not hear the call to prayer because his home is far away

Question:
The questioner from Taiz, Yemen, says: I live half a kilometer away from the mosque, and I do not hear the adhan except at certain times through the loudspeaker. Is there any blame on me if I pray in my home alone or with my wife?

Answer:
If you do not hear the mu'adhdhin due to a defect in your ears, this does not exempt you from attending the prayer; it is obligatory for you to go to the mosque. However, if you do not hear the adhan because of the distance, this does not obligate you to attend. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , so he made attendance contingent upon hearing the call. If he does not hear it because of the distance, he has a dispensation to pray in his home, and there is nothing wrong with his wife praying with him. But if he does not hear the call due to a defect in his hearing, while he is close to the mosque, this does not exempt him from attending the congregational prayer in the mosque. Yes.
