Is the reward for the Sunnah prayer multiplied in the Haram like the obligatory prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the reward for the Sunnah prayer in the Haram multiplied to one hundred thousand good deeds, like the obligatory prayer? Is the reward for the Sunnah prayer in the Haram multiplied to one hundred thousand, like the obligatory prayer?

Answer:
Yes, the generality of the hadith requires this. A prayer in this mosque, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(peace and blessings be upon him) said: A prayer in this mosque is worth a thousand prayers in any other mosque, except the Sacred Mosque, and a prayer in the Sacred Mosque is worth a hundred thousand prayers in any other mosque.صلى الله عليه وسلم صلاة في مسجد هذا عن ألف صلاة فيما سواه من المساجد إلا المسجد الحرام وصلاة في المسجد الحرام عن مائة ألف صلاة فيما سواه
So the prayer is general; this applies to the obligatory prayer and the voluntary prayer.
