Ja'mmaa'a Prayer with a man and a woman only

Question: 597

Can a muslim one man and one woman perform
janaat together?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. To proceed:

Yes, it is permissible for one man to pray jamaa'ah (in congregation) with one woman (say his wife). She would stand behind him. (Note from the translator: It should be understood that this would not substitute the man praying jamaa'ah in the mosque whenever applicable.)

wallaahu a'lam.
