The Ruling on Praying in Congregation in Shared Housing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, a group of men live in the same place. Is it permissible for them to pray in congregation in that mosque or residence, or are they required to go out to the mosque?

Answer:
They are required to go out to the nearby mosque where they can hear the adhan. If they can hear the adhan, it is obligatory for them to go to the mosque. If they cannot hear the adhan because it is far from them, they pray in their place. Yes.
