He built a mosque near his house, but there is no congregation in it

Fatwa number ( 8605 )
Q: (Summary of the question): I live in a house that is about two hundred meters from the mosque. Because my house is on the main street, travelers need a place for wudu' and prayer; therefore, I built a small mosque where I pray and where travelers come, and sometimes I pray in it alone without a congregation. Is it permissible for me to pray in this mosque, or should I go to the first mosque?
A: If the situation is as you described, it is obligatory to go to the mosque where the prayer is performed in congregation. It is easy for you to take your children with you to the mosque of the congregation. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
