Question:
Finally, this questioner asks, Shaykh, he says: Whoever prays twelve rak'ahs other than the obligatory prayers, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise, to the end of the hadith. What are these rak'ahs and when is their time?
Answer:
I do not know this hadith, but the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan Ibn Majah 1360Sahih (Darussalam) twelve rak'ahs, and he would complete the odd number with a thirteenth, or he would pray ten and complete the odd number with one. This is in the night prayer. And if he missed the night prayer, he would make it up during the day and make it even, so it becomes twelve. Yes.
