The ruling on a husband and wife praying the night prayer in congregation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it permissible for me to pray the night prayer in congregation with my wife? And what is the ruling if I do this regularly?

Answer:
No, if you intend this, then it is not prescribed. But if she comes and prays with you, there is no harm. If she comes and prays with you, there is no harm in that. As for arranging this regularly, the voluntary prayer—the night prayer—does not have a congregation that is intended and agreed upon, except in Ramadan: the tarawih prayer and the tahajjud prayer. Yes.
