I am living in DELHI. In our masjid we have basement ,ground,first & IInd floor. generally daily five namaz are held in ground floor but during RAMZAN ISHA namaz with tarawi and vitr is held seperately by different imams in basement,ground and first floor. They say that as people come from thier office and business works at different times therefore seperate namaz in one masjid in different floor is jaiz.please give your view point at the earliest as ramzan is fast approaching.

(Fatwa: 952/952=M/1429)
You should perform obligatory salah of Isha behind Imam and avoid arranging separate jamaats in different floors of a mosque, though it is allowable to offer separate Tarawih in different floors of a mosque provided there is narrow place, no sound echoing, no chaotic situation etc, but it is undesirable (makrooh tanzihee). It is another matter if performed on account of little space, but it should not be made a custom. If you want to perform Tarawih separately, then also you must offer Isha salah with jamaat and choose any other suitable place out of a mosque for Tarawih.
