Does a woman pray in her apartment with the imam, or does she pray alone?

The questioner : The questioner says: The questioner says: I am an elderly woman who came to Makkah to fast there. I live in an apartment on the fourth floor, and I suffer from pain in my knee. Is it permissible for me to pray with the imam while I am in the apartment, or should I pray alone without following the imam?

The Shaykh : The answer to this issue was given recently, and we explained that the scholars differed on it. So, if one follows the opinion of one of them, we see that he is in a state of ease in the matter, but on the condition that this house or apartment not be in front of the imam’s attendants. If it is in front of the imam’s attendants, it is not permissible for a person to follow an imam who is behind his back. Yes. The questioner says: A man has a piece of land that he bought four years ago, and he did not prepare it for trade. Is there zakah on it?
