Going to a musjid that is further away from one’s home

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is it ok to bypass the nearest mosque and go to a distant mosque in order to pray there, because the Imam of the (distant) mosque has good tajweed and tarteel and prays bigger surahs and is well acquainted with the Masail?

Bismillaah

A: If you feel that the imaam in the nearest musjid is not reading the namaaz right you may go to the distant musjid.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
