The ruling on congregational prayer if there is no mosque

Question:
One of the listeners, Salah Muhammad Karrar, sent a question saying: In our village, there is no mosque to perform the prayers in congregation, but we perform the Maghrib and Isha prayers in congregation near our homes. Is that permissible?

Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory for you to pray in congregation in the home of one of you, or near your homes, until a place is made available for you to pray in. It is obligatory for you to cooperate in finding a mosque, even by purchasing land and building it. Building mosques is an individual obligation for the Muslims. It is obligatory for you, if you do not have a nearby mosque, to build a mosque at your own expense, or with your own hands, just as you have money in your hands, so you cooperate in building it with your own hands in a suitable place in the middle of you. If you seek help from Allah, and then from some of your wealthy brothers, there is no blame on you for that.
As for your negligence in this matter, it is not permissible. But as long as the mosque has not been established, pray together in any part of the land that suits you, where you can gather, or in the home of one of you if a suitable place is not available, and praise be to Allah, until the mosque is established. It is necessary to establish it. It is obligatory for you to establish it and to cooperate in that, or to seek help from those you see among the people of good in your country, or elsewhere. Yes.
