The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is better for one who is in Madinah or Makkah, to pray the voluntary prayers in the two sacred mosques or in his home?
The Shaykh:
Or rather, fundamentally?
The questioner:
Which is better for one who is in Madinah or Makkah, to pray the voluntary prayers in the two sacred mosques or in his home? And is there a difference between the residents and the travelers?
The Shaykh:
As for the obligatory prayers, they are better in the two sacred mosques. The obligatory prayers of the five daily prayers, and prayer in the Haram: the obligatory prayer in al-Masjid al-Haram is like a thousand prayers, like a hundred thousand prayers, like a hundred thousand prayers, like a hundred thousand prayers, like the obligatory prayer, and likewise in al-Masjid al-Nabawi, the deeds in prayer. As for the voluntary prayers, it is better to pray them in the homes. There is no difference between the resident and the traveler, except for the traveler who does not have a home, the traveler who does not have a house; he comes to the mosque to take shelter in it and prays the obligatory and voluntary prayers in it. As for the one who has a home, there is no virtue in him performing voluntary prayers in his dwelling, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan an-Nasa'i 1599Sahih (Darussalam) The garbled word. Yes.
