Question

When the congregation prays in the synagogue, and there is no room in the main synagogue, but there is a place to pray on the path before the synagogue (on the side of the Ark). When I pray there, the congregation sees me, but I do not see them. Is this considered praying with a minyan?

Answer

It is forbidden to pray on the path before the synagogue. It is preferable to pray alone.
