ok another Q, theres a masjid kind of place thats opened in my area, I normally do jamat at home with two other people, these guys won't really go ther cos its a good walk away from my house and i'll be biking it, so should I do jamat at home so they can pray in jamat as well or should I go to the masjid?
btw its my lil brother and an arab dude, I don't think they'll do jamat between them
Have them pray together so you can go to the masjid?
Maybe this hadith can shed some light..
Narrated By Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "The prayer offered in congregation is twenty five times more superior (in reward) to the prayer offered alone in one's house or in a business centre, because if one performs ablution and does it perfectly, and then proceeds to the mosque with the sole intention of praying, then for each step which he takes towards the mosque, Allah upgrades him a degree in reward and (forgives) crosses out one sin till he enters the mosque. When he enters the mosque he is considered in prayer as long as he is waiting for the prayer and the angels keep on asking for Allah's forgiveness for him and they keep on saying: 'O Allah! Be Merciful to him, O Allah! Forgive him, as long as he keeps on sitting at his praying place and does not pass wind. (Bukhari)
Allah (swt) knows best.
