Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Sometimes a group goes out to a rest stop, and the mosque is close to them, but they pray in congregation at the rest stop. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
If the mosque is close to them and they can hear the adhan, it is not permissible for them to fail to respond to the mosque. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:352. These people are close to the mosque and pray in the mosque because they heard the call; they are required to respond and be present.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good,
