Question

I am a businessman. The distance from the shop to the mosque will be about 400 to 500 yards. It takes about 40 minutes to open and close the shop, to stay in the mosque and to come and go. Besides, I have to run my shop alone, no one else. When the store is left open, it is almost always stolen. And if it is stopped, 40 × 4 in 4 times = about 2 hours 40 minutes. The result is a loss of business. Meanwhile, I have no recourse to halal food except this shop. For all these reasons, I cannot always attend Jamaat in the mosque. Many times I pray in the shop, sometimes I pray alone. In this situation, can I argue the Jama'at of the mosque or not? 5546268944

The Shari'ah places great emphasis on praying in congregation. On the basis of which it has been said that it is obligatory to attend Jamaat in other schools In the Hanafi school, it is obligatory to pray in congregation, and there is a stern warning in the Shari'ah about those who argue in congregation. In a hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) declared: I wish to ask someone to lead the prayer with the call to prayer and to ask a group of young men to collect firewood, then to burn the houses of those who do not come to the mosque to pray even after hearing the call to prayer. But I do not do it for the sake of the elderly, children and women. So try to build a Panjegana mosque in a nearby place with religious people like you and try to join Jamaat even if it is a little time consuming. Inshallah your sales and profits will not be less. And in those times when there is more difficulty, pray in congregation with 2/1 people in the shop. 7323944318
