The Place of the Pre-Obligatory Rawatib (Regular Voluntary Prayers)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The regular pre-obligatory voluntary prayers, is it better to pray them in the house or in the mosque?
The Shaykh:
The voluntary prayer, what is it?
The questioner:
The regular pre-obligatory voluntary prayers, is it better to pray them in the house or in the mosque?
The Shaykh:
As for the imam, he prays them in the house because he is waiting and not waiting. As for the one praying behind him, he looks at what is best for him. If it is better for him to pray them in the house, he prays them there. And if it is better for him to pray them in the mosque so that he does not miss the prayer, or so that the prayer is not established while he is late, he prays them in the mosque. The matter is broad in this regard.
