Is it permissible to pray Taraaweeh at home? Is it permissible to pray
it withone's wife, with the husband as the imam?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Taraaweeh prayer is Sunnah mu'akkadah (a confirmed Sunnah) which the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) encouraged when he
said: "Whoever prays at night in Ramadaan out of faith and the hope of
reward, his previous sins will be forgiven." Narrated by al-Bukhaari,
37; Muslim, 759.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) led his
companions in praying Taraaweeh for several nights, then he feared
that it may be made obligatory for them, so hedid not go out to them.
Then 'Umar united the people under one imam, and it has been prayed in
congregation ever since. Itwas narrated that Ismaa'eel ibn Ziyaad
said: 'Ali passed by the mosques in which there were lamps during the
month of Ramadaan and said, 'May Allaah illuminate 'Umar's grave for
him as he illuminated our mosques for us." Narrated by al-Athram,
quoted in al-Mughni, 1/457.
Al-Bahooti said in Daqaa'iq Uli al-Nuha, 1/2245:
It is better to pray Taraaweeh in the mosquethan at home, because the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) gathered the
people to pray Taraaweehfor three consecutive nights, as was narrated
by'Aa'ishah… and he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Whoeverprays qiyaam with the imam until he leaves, it will be as if
he spent the whole night in prayer."
Al-Shawkaani said in Nayl al-Awtaar (3/62): Al-Nawawi said: The
scholars are agreed that itis mustahabb, but they differed as to
whether it isbetter to pray it alone at home or in congregation in the
mosque. Al-Shaafa'i and a number of his companions, and Abu Haneefah,
Ahmad, some of the Maalikis and others said that it is better to pray
it in congregation as 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab andthe Sahaabah (may
Allaahbe pleased with him) did and as the Muslims continued to do,
because this is one of the manifestrituals.
So praying it in congregation in the mosque is better, but if a man
prays it on his own at home, or in congregation with his family, that
is permissible.
Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo', 3/526:
Taraaweeh prayer is Sunnah according to scholarly consensus… it is
permissible to pray it alone or in congregation, but which is better?
Thereare two well-known points of view concerning this; the correct
view according to the consensus of the Sahaabah is that it is better
to pray it in congregation.
And Allaah knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
