Performing the Tahajjud Prayer in Congregation Outside of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible to perform the Tahajjud prayer in congregation in a mosque for the purpose of teaching the youth this prayer, outside of the month of Ramadan?

Answer:
It is not permissible to intend that or to gather for it. However, if it happens that they are in one place and they stand to pray, there is no harm in praying it in congregation. But if they gather specifically for it, this is not permissible except in the month of Ramadan, specifically in the Tarawih prayer. Yes.
