1- Knowing other brothers, loving each other for the sake of Allah and strengthening ties of love; without which, perfect faith would not have been easy to achieve. This is because, there is no path to faith and paradise except by loving for the sake of Allah.
2- Freedom from hypocrisy and the hell fire. This is for someone who meets the initiating Takbeer of every Ṣalāt for forty consecutive days. Anas , reported http://en.islamkingdom.com/Know_about_Islam/The_Path_to_Happiness/Messengers_and_Prophets - the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: �Should I direct you to that by which Allah eradicates sins and raises the levels?� They replied: �Yes, Oh Messenger of Allah.� Then the Prophet said: �Performing ablution when it is disliked, taking many steps to the mosques, and waiting for Ṣalāt one after the other. That is striving in the cause of Allah.� [ Source: Muslim.]
9- Observing Ṣalāt in congregation is better than observing it alone by twenty-seven degrees. On the authority of Abdullah ibn Umar t,, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: �Congregational http://en.islamkingdom.com/fiqh/Fiqh_al_Ibadat/Salat/Congregational_Prayer - Ṣalāh is better than that observed alone by twenty-seven degrees.� [ Source: Al-Bukhari.]
- Congregational Prayer (Ṣalāt ) at Home.
It is not advised for any individual or congregation to observe Ṣalāt at home while a mosque is close to them. However if the Mosque is far away, and they did not hear the call to prayer, then there is no sin on them if they observe it in congregation at home.
