What is meant is taking the home as a place of worship. Allah says:
" and we inspired moosa and his brother (saying): take the dwellings for your place in Egypt,and make your dwellings as places for your worship, and perform al-sallah, and give glad tidings to the believers.'" [yoonus 10:87].
Ibn Abbas said : they were commanded to take their dwellings as places of prayer [lit. Mosques].
This explains the importance of worshipping at home, especially at times when the Muslims are in a position of weakness, as happens in some places where the Muslims cannot pray openly in front of kuffar. In this context we may think of the mihraab of Maryam, which was her place of worship, As Allah says " every time zakariyya entered the mihrab to visit her he found her supplied with sustenance....."[al imraan 3:37]
The sahabaah (May Allah be pleased with them) used to be keen to pray at home apart from the card or obligatory prayers ( which they prayed in congregation in the mosque)
