tabarani:18902Isḥāq b. Ibrāhīm al-Dabarī > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Hishām b. Ḥassān And al-Thhawrī

[Machine] "On the authority of Ya'la bin 'Ata' al-Ta'ifi, who narrated from Jabir bin Yazid bin al-Aswad, who narrated from his father, he said: We prayed Fajr prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He turned around and saw two men behind the people, so he called them and they approached him trembling. Their clothes were disheveled. He asked them, 'What prevented you from praying with the people?' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we prayed on the way.' He said, 'Do not do so when any one of you has already prayed during his journey and then catches up with the prayer led by the imam. Rather, pray it with him, for it is a voluntary (nafl) prayer.'"

abudawud:575Ḥafṣ b. ʿUmar > Shuʿbah > Yaʿlá b. ʿAṭāʾ > Jābir b. Yazīd b. al-Aswad

Yazid prayed along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he was a young boy. When he (the Prophet) had prayed there were two persons (sitting) in the corner of the mosque; they did not pray (along with the Prophet). He called for them. They were brought trembling (before him). He asked: What prevented you from praying along with us? They replied: We have already prayed in our houses. He said: Do not do so. If any of you prays in his house and finds that the imam has not prayed, he should pray along with him; and that will be a supererogatory prayer for him.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed Fajr in Mina, then he turned and saw two men behind the people. So, he called them and they came to him trembling. He said, "What prevented you from praying with the people?" They said, "We had already prayed in our camp." He said, "Do not do so if one of you has prayed in his camp, and then he catches up with the prayer led by the imam, then he should still pray it with him, for it will be a voluntary prayer for him."

[Machine] I prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Mina. When he finished the prayer, he noticed two men at the back of the people. He called them and said, "What prevented you from praying with the people?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we already prayed in our tents." He said, "Do not do so if any of you prays in his tent and then catches up with the congregation prayer, let him join them, as it will be a voluntary prayer for him."
