Assalamu alaikum,

I have find some related information as following.

In the Hanafi school:
1. It is disliked to pray nafl prayers in a large congregation or to make it a habit, except the tarawih prayer in Ramadan. [Durr al-Mukhtar, Radd al-Muhtar, Hashiyat al-Tabyin]
2. This would appear to be somewhat disliked. [Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar]
3. The fuqaha termed it a bid`a. [Tahawi, and Kamal ibn al-Humam, Fath al-Qadir]
4. The essential reason for it being disliked is that it entails going against that which is legislated, which is that the obligatory prayers are prayed in congregation, and voluntary prayers alone. The transmitted exceptions relate only to small congregations, and were rare occurrences, as such, the fuqaha explained that:
5. A small congregation, which is less than four people, is not disliked, as long as it is not made a habit. [Durr al-Mukhtar, Radd al-Muhtar, Bazzaziyya]
6. Voluntary prayers are not disliked in the Shafii and Hanbali schools, it appears.

Concerns the performing of the taraweeh in congregation. The Prophet (pbuh) feared that this would become obligatory on the Muslims, that was the preventive reason, and therefore he discontinued this practice. During the time of Umar, the preventive reason no longer existed since Umar is not qualified to make any act obligatory. Therefore, it was possible to revive this Sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh). In fact, the companions of the Prophet (pbuh) were the best who understood the religion of Islam and they have implemented this distinction between the acts of the Prophet (pbuh).[/quote]
