Is it permissible to perform Esha salaah in a house where one will be performing taraweeh?
Question
I have been offered by my uncle to perform taraweeh salaah with two cousins of mine at his house. His house is between a musjid and a jamaat khana and is 650m from both. I wanted to find out if we are performing taraweeh there, can we perform the esha salaah there as well or not?
Answer
The esha namaaz should be done at the musjid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
