Where should one offer prayer if the closest mosque is of a different belief and far away?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I am residing in an area where the closest masjid is about half km which is of Barailavi and another one is about 1 km. The masjid of our belief is away by about 4 kms. Considering the situation, please advice where shall I offer prayer? At present, I am offering salah at home.

Instead of offering salah at home, you should offer it in the mosque of your aqidah. It is not difficult at a time when the facility of good transportation is available to travel to four km away and offer salah there with Jamah.
