Narrated Abu Huraira:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The reward of the prayer offered by a person in congregation is twenty five times greater than that of the prayer offered in one's house or in the market (alone). And this is because if he performs ablution and does it perfectly and then proceeds to the mosque with the sole intention of praying, then for every step he takes towards the mosque, he is upgraded one degree in reward and his one sin is taken off (crossed out) from his accounts (of deeds). When he offers his prayer, the angels keep on asking Allah's Blessings and Allah's forgiveness for him as long as he is (staying) at his Musalla. They say, 'O Allah! Bestow Your blessings upon him, be Merciful and kind to him.' And one is regarded in prayer as long as one is waiting for the prayer

حدثنا موسى بن اسماعيل، قال حدثنا عبد الواحد، قال حدثنا الاعمش، قال سمعت ابا صالح، يقول سمعت ابا هريرة، يقول قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " صلاة الرجل في الجماعة تضعف على صلاته في بيته وفي سوقه خمسا وعشرين ضعفا، وذلك انه اذا توضا فاحسن الوضوء، ثم خرج الى المسجد لا يخرجه الا الصلاة، لم يخط خطوة الا رفعت له بها درجة، وحط عنه بها خطيية، فاذا صلى لم تزل الملايكة تصلي عليه ما دام في مصلاه اللهم صل عليه، اللهم ارحمه. ولا يزال احدكم في صلاة ما انتظر الصلاة
