The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Our mosque, which is close to our house, is being renovated and repaired. Is it permissible for me to pray at home, given that the nearest mosque is one kilometer away from our house?
The Shaykh:
One kilometer is close. It is not permissible for you to pray at home. One kilometer is close. Yes.
The questioner:
You.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best.
