Fathwa, - Determining the reward of the woman’s prayer inside her home is boundto Sharee‘ah texts

Question
Would a woman attain the twenty-seven fold reward if she offered the
prayer inside her home like the case of men who offer prayers in the
mosque?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
isHis slave and Messenger.
There is no doubt that offering prayer in a congregation is better
than offering it alone. However, the prayer of a woman in her home is
superior to offering it in the mosque. Hence, the less virtuous deed
takes precedence over the most virtuous deed if it isdone in its
optimum timeand place. For example, reciting the Quran is more
virtuous than reciting the mere remembrance of Allaah The Exalted.
However, reciting the regular remembrance after the prayer in its due
time takes precedence over reciting the Quran as it occurred in the
proper place and time. The superiority of a woman's prayer inside her
home does not necessarily mean that it is equal to the prayer of men
in congregation. Hence, thismatter is not based on human opinions but
requires authentic proofsfrom the Quran or the Sunnah. The Prophet ,
mentioned that the prayer of a woman in herhome is better for her but
he did not determinea specific reward.
Allaah Knows best. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->
