Answer

In this time and age, people opposing Islam are great in number. Any means will be used to propagate false sects. Thus, in protection of the community against the Baatil sects, such a condition where only the people of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa` perform Salaat in the local Musjid would only be a means of protecting the pure Deen of Islam.
