The ruling on the regular performance of the Duha prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Yes. Her third question says: Our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform the Duha prayer regularly every day. So is it better not to perform it regularly in order to follow him and adhere to the Sunnah, following his footsteps exactly, or did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) leave it for certain reasons, just as he sometimes left the Witr prayer out of mercy for his Ummah so that it would not become obligatory?

Answer:
The Sunnah is to perform it occasionally, not to pray it every day, day after day. Yes.
