Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Now, regarding the regular voluntary prayers (rawatib): if a person is staying in the Haram, residing in a hotel for three or four days, is it better for him to pray them in the Haram, or to pray them in his apartment or residence?
Answer:
It is better, and if she prays it in the mosque, there is no harm. The multiplication of reward is achieved in both cases, but voluntary prayers are better at home. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in his sermon while in Madinah:, and prayer in Madinah is multiplied in goodness over a thousand prayers. And despite this, he said that it is better at home, meaning that her voluntary prayer at home is better than a thousand prayers, better than in the mosque.

The best prayer for a woman is in her home, except for the obligatory prayers.
