Question:
After this, a message reached the program from Yemen, and its sender is a listener who says: The sender, Ali Muhammad, says: I had guests, and the time for the 'Isha' prayer arrived, so I said to them: The time for prayer in the mosque has arrived, but they did not respond to me, so I repeated it to them several times, but they prayed at home. Did I fulfill my duty toward enjoining good and forbidding evil?
Answer:
Yes, but if they are travelers, they may pray at home shortened, if they are travelers who passed by you as travelers, not residents in the town for a period exceeding four days, but their intention is to travel, they only passed by as guests, and they are two or more, then they may pray shortened at home, and if they pray with the people, they pray four rak'ahs.
As for if they are guests from the people of the town, or their intention is to stay more than four days, then they must pray in the mosque with the people, and it is obligatory upon them to listen and obey and not to oppose you, rather it is obligatory upon them to go out to the mosque and pray with the people, and if they refuse, then you have done what is required of you, and you must pray with the people and then return to them, you go out and pray with the congregation and then return, yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
