Ruling on praying voluntary prayers in congregation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible for us to perform voluntary prayers in congregation?
Answer:
Yes, if it is done occasionally, there is nothing wrong with it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) visited some of his Companions and prayed in congregation with them, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him. So if a person visits some of his brothers and prays in congregation with them, for example the Duha prayer, there is nothing wrong with it.
However, making it a regular, organized congregational practice is not permissible. But if he visits some of his brothers and prays in congregation with them, or if he visits some of his brothers and they pray in congregation, there is nothing wrong with it.
The presenter: May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
