The ruling on leaving the congregational prayer for one who cannot walk and does not have a means of transport

Question:
Please, please. Your first question. I am, my brother, suffering. I have had eight operations, and the mosque is far from us, perhaps about six hundred meters. I cannot walk more than twenty meters and then I stop; I cannot, I mean, I cannot go to the mosque, and I do not have a car that I can drive to go and walk. Okay, thank you, thank you.

Answer:
My brother, if you are as you described, unable to walk to the mosque and you do not have a means of transport to ride in, then you are excused. You pray in your home until the excuse is removed. And praise be to Allah, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation to the sick person and to the one who is afraid, where this prevents him from praying the congregational prayer in the mosque, to pray in his home until the excuse is removed. And praise be to Allah, yes.
