Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters says: If my husband does not pray the congregational prayer in the mosque with the Muslims, do I have the right to ask for divorce and separation from him?
Answer:
Yes, if he persists in not praying with the congregation, and after you have advised him and pressed the matter with him, you have the right to ask him for a divorce. This is because the congregational prayer is obligatory. Therefore, mosques were built for it, the call to prayer was prescribed, and imams and mu'adhdhins were appointed. The congregational prayer is a matter of great importance, and in the hadith:Sunan Ibn Majah 793Sahih (Darussalam) Yes.
