Moving Between Mosques During the Tarawih Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on moving between mosques for the Tarawih prayer, from one imam to another?

Answer:
The best thing for a believer is to pray with an appropriate imam if one is available nearby. However, if there is a need to move to another mosque, that does not harm his mosque; his mosque remains standing and is not harmed, as I said. So there is no blame on him if he goes to a mosque where he feels at ease with another imam, becomes humble in prayer, and benefits from it. Indeed, even if it is merely for the sake of variety, there is nothing wrong with it, but it should be for his religious benefit. Yes.
