Question:
If a man doesn’t do isha with jamaat can they be the imam for Taraweeh salaah?
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Answer:
The time for Taraweeh starts after the Isha Salaah.1 As long as the Imam performed Isha Salaah prior to leading Taraweeh, the prayer will be valid.2
Only Allah knows best
