The answer

If the prayer is missed in the mosque and prayed at home on time, this is a cause for sadness due to missing the reward of congregational prayer, the steps to the mosque, and the angels' supplication for forgiveness. Congregational prayer in the mosque is obligatory according to some scholars. This sadness is a sign of faith, and one must strive to go to the mosque. If the prayer is missed until its time has expired, this is more severe, and one must take measures to wake up, such as setting an alarm or appointing someone to wake you. Negligence in this incurs sin.
