Salaah with Jamaat

Q: Does the narration of Hazrat Ali Radhiyallahu Anhu regarding the neighbour of the masjid "his salaah will not be proper unless performed in the masjid" also apply to the neighbour of a musalla (jama'at khana)? If he hears the azaan of the Musalla, will it also be waajib to attend that jama'at?

A: Performing salaah with jamaat is close to the status of a waajib in the hanafi mazhab. Similarly it is necessary for one to perform one's Salaah in the Musjid. Without a valid reason one should not omit the jamaat in the Musjid. If there is no Musjid in one's locality and there is a jamaat khana, then one should perform his Salaah in the jamaat khana. However the jamaat khana is not in the status of a musjid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

عن عبد الله بن مسعود قال حافظوا على هؤلاء الصلوات الخمس حيث ينادى بهن فإنهن من سنن الهدى وإن الله شرع لنبيه -صلى الله عليه وسلم- سنن الهدى ولقد رأيتنا وما يتخلف عنها إلا منافق بين النفاق ولقد رأيتنا وإن الرجل ليهادى بين الرجلين حتى يقام فى الصف وما منكم من أحد إلا وله مسجد فى بيته ولو صليتم فى بيوتكم وتركتم مساجدكم تركتم سنة نبيكم -صلى الله عليه وسلم- ولو تركتم سنة نبيكم -صلى الله عليه وسلم- لكفرتم. (أبو داود #550)
