Is it better for men and women who come to do ‘umrah to pray Taraweeh in Makkah and Madinah in the hotel or in the Haram?

Firstly: 

The scholars differed as to what is preferable in the case of
Taraweeh prayer: Is it better to offer it in the mosque in congregation or
to offer it at home individually? There are three opinions concerning that: 

1.

That offering it in congregation in the mosque is preferable.
This is the opinion of the earlier Hanafis, Ahmad ibn Hanbal and the
majority of his companions. 

We have quoted the evidence presented by those who hold this
view, in the answer to question no.
45781, where we stated that we
regard it as more likely to be correct. 

2.

That praying it individually at home is preferable. This is
the view of Maalik and al-Shaafa‘i and most of their companions. Maalik (may
Allah have mercy on him) quoted as evidence the action of the seniors among
his shaykhs and the senior Sahaabah. 

Al-Shaafa‘i (may Allah have mercy on him) quoted as evidence
the hadeeth of Zayd ibn Thaabit (may Allah be pleased with him), according
to which the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
made a booth out of a reed mat in Ramadan and prayed in it at night, and
some men among his Companions followed him in prayer. When he realized that
they were doing that, he started praying seated (so that people could not
see him and follow him in prayer). Then he came out to them and said: “I
know what you did. O people, pray in your houses, for the best of a man’s
prayer is in his house, apart from the obligatory prayers.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (698) and Muslim (781). 

Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr (may Allah have mercy on him) said: 

Maalik said: Rabee‘ah and more than one of our scholars would
leave and not pray qiyaam with the people. Maalik said: And I also do that;
and the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did
not pray qiyaam except in his house. 

Al-Shaafa‘i also quoted as evidence the hadeeth of Zayd ibn
Thaabit, which he quoted. And al-Shaafa‘i said: The point is further
emphasized by the fact that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) told them to pray qiyaam in their homes rather than in
his mosque despite all the virtue that there is in that.

Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr also said: 

If offering a naafil prayer at home is better than offering
it in the mosque of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
in which one prayer is better than a thousand prayers offered anywhere else,
what can be clearer than this? Hence Maalik and al-Shaafa‘i, and those who
followed their path, thought that praying alone at home was better in the
case of all naafil prayers. If qiyaam is held in the mosque in Ramadan, even
with the smallest number of people, prayer at home is still better.

End quote from al-Istidhkaar, 2/73 

It should be noted that those imams who said that praying
Taraweeh alone at home is better than praying it in congregation in the
mosque only applied that to the one who has memorised some Qur’aan – or the
entire Qur’aan – and has the motivation to pray at home and there is no fear
that he will become lazy and miss the prayer, and that the prayer in
congregation in the mosque will not be affected by his absence. If these
conditions are not met, then there is no doubt, according to their view,
that praying Taraweeh in congregation in the mosque is better. 

Al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: 

Our companions, the Iraqis, al-Saydalaani, al-Baghawi and
others among the Khorasanis said: The difference of opinion has to do with
one who has memorised Qur’aan and for whom there is no fear that he will
become lazy if he prays on his own and that the congregation in the mosque
will not be affected if he stays away. If one of these conditions is not
met, then praying in congregation is preferable and there is no difference
of opinion concerning that.

End quote from al-Majmoo‘, 4/31 

We may add another important condition here which was added
by some of the scholars and which is relevant to what the questioner asked
about. This is that for it to be preferable for a person to pray in his
house on his own rather than offering the prayer in the Haramain, he should
be one of the people of the Haramain (i.e., a resident of Makkah or
Madinah). The one who comes to the Haram in Makkah to do ‘umrah – and,
similarly, the one who comes to Madinah to pray in the Prophet’s Mosque – is
not subject to the ruling that praying Taraweeh in his house is preferable. 

Muhammad al-Dasooqi al-Maaliki (may Allah have mercy on him)
said: 

The recommendation to do it (pray Taraweeh) in one’s house is
subject to three conditions: that the mosques should not be left empty, that
he has the motivation to do it and he should not be one of those who are
coming from afar to visit the Haramain. If one of these conditions is
absent, then doing it in the mosque is preferable.

End quote from Haashiyat al-Dasooqi, 1/315 

Looking at the state of people nowadays – including many of
the good and righteous youth who are devoted to worship – we find that
praying Taraweeh in congregation in the mosque is better for them, because
praying in the mosque is very encouraging for them, as it is done at the
beginning of the night, and because of the beauty of the imam’s voice – for
those who seek to pray with an imam like this – and because of the large
numbers of people who pray. And also because there are many distractions in
the home that lead people to become lazy in offering the prayer. Hence we
think that calling on ordinary people nowadays to pray Taraweeh at home is
an invitation to abandon this prayer! Where are those who have memorized
anything of the Qur’aan among those people? What else will these people be
doing if they are not praying in the mosque at the beginning of the night?
Where is the motive that will make them get up at the end of the night to
pray qiyaam? 

If we assume that the correct view concerning this matter
according to some people is the second opinion, then let this apply only to
the elite, not the common folk; perhaps this is what was meant by those
among the salaf who favoured this opinion. Hence ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may
Allah be pleased with him) gathered the people together in the mosque to
pray Taraweeh, and he prayed on his own in his house. 

How beautiful are the words of Imam Malik, who summed up what
we are trying to say. When Ibn al-Qaasim asked him about whether it is
better for a man to pray qiyaam in Ramadan with the people or on his own in
his house? He replied: If he is able to do it in his house, then I prefer
that, but not all the people are able for that.

Secondly: 

With regard to women praying Taraweeh in their houses, this
has already been dealt with in the answer to question no.
3457, where we said that it is
better for women to pray qiyaam in their houses, because the Prophet
(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Do not prevent your women
from going to the mosques, although their houses are better for them.”
Narrated by Abu Dawood. The fact that praying at home is preferred does not
mean that they should not be permitted to go to the mosques, but that is
subject to certain conditions, which are mentioned in the question referred
to. 

In the same answer we quoted a fatwa of Shaykh Ibn Baaz which
states that Taraweeh at home is better for a woman than in the mosque. 

In the answer to question no.
12451, we quoted Shaykh Ibn
‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) as saying: 

The Sunnah indicates that it is better for a woman to pray in
her house wherever she is, whether she is in Makkah or elsewhere. End
quote. 

And Allah knows best.
