Hopefully, from the aforementioned proofs, the reader could get hard evidences on the obligation of attending the congregational Sal?t, thoroughly understand them to refute all misconceptions raised about this issue, deeply feel the destructive effects of abandoning it and sincerely attend it in the mosque. ‘It is an obligation on the Im?ms [leaders of Sal?t] to advice muslims to attend it reminding them with and warning them against All?h’s ( - عز وجل -) threat and punishment’. (1)

Shaikhul Isl?m Ibn Taymiyyah said: ‘Whoever thinks that doing Sal?t at home is better than doing it with the congregation in the mosque has indeed gone astray and he is of the Mubtadi‘ah -as all muslims’s [i.e. scholars] agreed upon- for doing [the compulsory] Sal?t with the congregation is either a collective duty or an individual one. The proofs from the Holy Qur’?n and the Sunnah strongly indicate that it is an individual obligation’. (2)

‘You should know dear muslim reader -may All?h ( - عز وجل -) guide you to the truth- that Shait?n tries his best to divert you from doing Sal?t and talking with your Rabb. He begins first with diverting you from attending the congregation [in the mosque] then form reciting Tasb?h after Sal?t and then form Sal?t itself -as happened more than once.

How could you abandon the twenty seven doubles reward for only one?? Is it that you are in no need of them?? You would indeed need them when you stand before Rabb Tomorrow.

Pay heed to this and be not deceived by the great number of those who abandon it or do it lazily, those whom Shait?n has deceived. Beware of following Shait?n’s way.

Indeed, Sak?nah [reassurance, peace and calmness] will never get into one’s heart if one does [the congregational] Sal?t at home. All?h’s ( - عز وجل -) mosques are only inhabited by those who believe in All?h ( - عز وجل -) and the last Day, are you not one of them?!
