Doubling of the prayer in al-Masjid al-Nabawi and the woman’s prayer in her home
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner asks: If a woman leaves praying in the Prophet’s Mosque, acting on the hadith that prayer in her home is better, is her reward better than a thousand prayers?
The Shaykh:
The Prophet’s Mosque.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
No, the prayer is not doubled in al-Masjid al-Nabawi except in al-Masjid al-Nabawi itself. If her home is outside the mosque, she does not receive the doubling. This is in Makkah; Makkah is the place where the prayer is doubled in the entire Haram, not just in the mosque of the Ka'bah. Rather, everything within the miles is al-Masjid al-Haram, and the prayer is doubled in it. This is the correct opinion. As for al-Madinah, the doubling is specific to the mosque itself. It is not doubled in the homes of al-Madinah. Yes.
