Is there a reward for one who prays tarawih and qiyam al-layl at home?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I am content in the last ten nights with praying tarawih at home, and likewise qiyam al-layl. Do I have a reward for that if I leave the congregation?

Answer:
You have a reward for that, if Allah wills, but praying with the congregation in the mosque is better and more excellent, because this is a religious observance; the prayer of tarawih is one of the manifest observances of Islam. Your joining the congregation and praying in the mosque is better. Yes.
