8. Book of Virtues
٨۔ كتاب الفضائل
The Prophet ﷺ had said, "Offer some of your prayers (Nawafil) at home, and do not take your houses as graves."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ اجْعَلُوا فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ مِنْ صَلاَتِكُمْ وَلاَ تَتَّخِذُوهَا قُبُورًا
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Offer some of your prayers in your houses and do not make them graves."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اجْعَلُوا فى بُيُوتِكُمْ مِنْ صَلاَتِكُمْ وَلاَ تَتَّخِذُوهَا قُبُورًا
When any one of you observes prayer in the mosque he should reserve a part of his prayer for his house, for Allah would make the prayer as a means of betterment in his house.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَضَى أَحَدُكُمُ الصَّلاَةَ فِي مَسْجِدِهِ فَلْيَجْعَلْ لِبَيْتِهِ نَصِيبًا مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ جَاعِلٌ فِي بَيْتِهِ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ خَيْرًا
Do not follow a prayer immediately with another prayer until speaking or leaving
Nafi b. Jubayr sent him to al-Saib, the son of the sister of Numayr, to ask him about something Muawiyah had seen him do during the prayer. He said: Yes, I prayed the Friday prayer with him in the enclosed area. When the imam said the taslim (ended the prayer), I stood in my place and prayed. When he entered, he sent for me and said: Do not repeat what you did. When you pray the Friday prayer, do not join it to another prayer until you speak or go out, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to do that: that no prayer is to be joined to another until we speak or go out.
أَنَّ نَافِعَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ أَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى السَّائِبِ ابْنِ أُخْتِ نَمِرٍ، يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ رَآهُ مِنْهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، صَلَّيْتُ مَعَهُ الْجُمُعَةَ فِي الْمَقْصُورَةِ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ الْإِمَامُ، قُمْتُ فِي مَقَامِي فَصَلَّيْتُ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ، فَقَالَ: لَا تَعُدْ لِمَا فَعَلْتَ: إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ الْجُمُعَةَ فَلَا تَصِلْهَا بِصَلَاةٍ حَتَّى تَتَكَلَّمَ أَوْ تَخْرُجَ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَرَنَا بِذَلِكَ، أَنْ لَا تُوصَلَ صَلَاةٌ حَتَّى نَتَكَلَّمَ أَوْ نَخْرُجَ.
