A clarification regarding the sometimes controversial, sometimes misunderstood topic of the ‘2nd Jama’aah’. Abul-Hasan Maalik Aadaam discusses some of the proofs and evidences in favour of the permissibility of making the 2nd jama’aah. Our brother draws upon some of the writings of the 'ulamaa who bring examples from the sahaabah and the salaf to support the permissibility of the act.
‘The salaah in the jama’aah is better than the salaah by one’s self.’
‘The Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) came from the passageways of Madeenah and he found that the people have prayed, so he returned home and gathered his family and made salaah with them.’
"Their argument is that he came to the masjid, found that the people have prayed so he returned home, so therefore, according to their argument, they cannot pray alone in the masjid as this would oppose the hadeeth." An important point considering the fact that those who oppose the position of making a 2nd jama’aah often pray alone in the masjid.
