I just prayed at home. There is a big difference between praying at home and praying in the mosque. What is recommended is to pray in the mosque, but due to the coronavirus it is forbidden to go, a decision made by the authorities, so we pray at home. I believe that the decision to close the mosque is to preserve our health. It also benefits everyone who pray at home.
