Congregational Prayer and Its Virtue

وَقَالَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ أُصَلِّي فِي أَهْلِي ثُمَّ أَخْرُجُ إِلَى اَلْمَسْجِدِ فَيُقَدِّمُونِي فَقَالَ «تَقَدَّمْ لاَ عَلَيْكَ وَ صَلِّ بِهِمْ.
A man said to him عليه السلام: "I pray with my family, then I go to the mosque and they ask me to lead them in prayer." Imam عليه السلام said: "Go ahead and lead them; there is no harm in it. Pray with them."
