ANSWER:

No, this is not a legitimate reason for abandoning the congregational prayer.

Sheikh, where I am staying there are small masjid in each of the block where most of the time, people can pray alone. Also, there is a big masjid close to where I am staying where people pray in jamah, but in this masjid, they always leave space in between one another,and if I try to move closer they move there feet away. This is the norm in this country. Is it okay to pray alone?
