Fatwa #421621 December 2001United Kingdom

can taraweeh be prayed in jamaat at home if there is a valid excuse?

Question

Taraweeh at our masjid takes place at around midnight so it is not possible for me to attend every day. Can i therefore form a jamaat with just me and my mother? can isha prayer also be prayed like this?

Answer

If it is not possible for you to perform Esha Salaah and Taraweeh in the
Musjid, you may perform them at home.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
