Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, may Allah benefit Islam and the Muslims through you. Among the questions that reached us is this one from one of the brothers, and it appears he is asking about the tarawih prayer. He says: What is its ruling? And is it permissible for me to pray it with my wife, in order to encourage my wife, daughters, and children to pray in congregation?
Answer:
Yes, the tarawih prayer is a confirmed sunnah (recommended practice). You may pray it in your home with your wife and children, and this is better if they do not pray, so that you pray with them in order for them to gain the benefit of the tarawih prayer. Yes.
