The Ruling on Praying Tarawih at Home

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding the tarawih prayer, is it permissible for a Muslim to pray these tarawih at home? And what is the reward associated with praying them in congregation at the mosque?

Answer:
Yes, he may pray tarawih at his home, but praying it in the mosque with the Muslims is better. If he is unable to attend the mosque, he prays it at his home. However, if he is able, it is better for him to pray with the Muslims and participate with the Muslims in enlivening the mosques. Perhaps he will benefit from the supplications of the Muslims, and his sins will be forgiven because of the supplications of the Muslims, so he should not deprive himself of that. Yes.
