Zaid bin Thabit (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "
O people! perform
your (voluntary) Salat (prayers) in your homes because the best Salat of a man is the one he performs at home,
except the obligatory Salat
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith tells us that the Nawafil and Sunnah prayers should be performed at home. It goes
without saying that all the Fard constituents of every Salat are to be performed in the mosque (
Masjid
) in
congregation. The order to perform the Nawafil prayers at home shows its merits. Firstly, it saves a person from
showing off, and secondly, houses are blessed due to them.

Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "
Observe part of the
[Nawafil (voluntary)] Salat (prayers) in your homes. Do not turn your homes into graves
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
"
Observe part of the Salat (prayers) in your homes
'' here means Nawafil and Sunnah. The houses in
which Nawafil are not performed are like graveyards. Such houses are like graves which have no scope for action
and worship and are thus deprived of their reward, which is a great deprivation indeed.

Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
When you have
finished your (Fard) Salat (prayer) in the mosque, you should observe some of your (Sunnah and Nawafil) Salat at
home; Allah will bless your homes because of your Salat (in your homes)
.''
[Muslim]
Commentary:
This Hadith has the same message which is conveyed by the preceding Ahadith namely that the Fard
Salat should be performed in the Masjid (
mosque
) while some of the supererogatory, optional and voluntary prayers
should be performed at home.

`Umar bin `Ata reported that Nafi` bin Jubair sent him to Sa'ib bin Ukht Namir to ask him about something
that Mu`awiyah had seen him doing in Salat (prayer). He said: "
Yes, I performed the Friday prayer along with him
in the enclosure (Maqsurah), and when the Imam concluded the Salat with Taslim, I stood up in my place and
performed the Sunnah prayer. When Mu`awiyah went home, he sent for me (and when I came) he said: "Never do
again what you have done. When you have observed the Friday prayer, you must not start another Sunnah prayer till
you have spoken to some one or have shifted your place; because the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) ordered us not to
follow up the congregational Salat with any other Salat until we have talked (to some one) or moved from the
place
."
[Muslim].
