Is my prayer behind my husband considered a congregational prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is my prayer behind my husband considered a congregational prayer?

The Shaykh : It is a congregation, but it does not appear that the reward of the congregation is obtained through it, because the reward of the congregation is only obtained by the one who prays in the mosque. I mean by this the great reward, which is as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The congregational prayer is better than the prayer of the individual by twenty-seven degrees صلاة الجماعة أفضل من صلاة الفرد بسبع وعشرين درجة
, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained that by what indicates that the intended meaning is the congregational prayer in the mosque, so he said:
When he leaves his home, nothing makes him leave except the prayer... إذا خرج من بيته لا يخرجه إلا الصلاة ...
Sunan ad-Darimi 16:2
then he mentioned the rest of the hadith.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.
