Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on leaving the two 'Id prayers and the prayer of the Night of Decree with the congregation because they go to pray in the tents on these occasions, and there is no mosque near me?

Answer:
Praise be to Allah. Pray the Night of Decree in your house. Pray with your family and your children, or pray alone in your house. It is not obligatory for you to pray it in the mosque or with the innovators. Pray it in your house with your household, or even pray it alone by yourself. As for the two 'Id prayers, they are a collective obligation.
If a sufficient number of people perform them, the sin is lifted from the rest. If you and your household pray them in congregation, that is better than praying them with the innovators. Pray with your household, or you and your neighbors gather and pray them, and do not pray with the innovators.
