How to Pray in Congregation at Home Due to COVID-19?

Offering the Sunnah of Fajr or Catching the Obligatory Fajr Prayer?

The Sunnah of Fajr

Question:
I get up shortly before the Fajr Prayer and make wudu (ablution), should I offer the Sunnah prayer or catch the obligatory prayer (Fajr)?

Answer:

In the name of Allah, we praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.

Abu Hurairah narrated that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “When the iqamah (the call to commence prayer) for prayer is given, there is no prayer except the prescribed prayer.” (Muslim)
