Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on praying four rak'ahs before the 'Asr prayer and continuing to do so?

Answer:
Good, this is a good thing. It is mentioned in an authentic hadith that whoever prays four rak'ahs before 'Asr
Allah will build for him a house in Paradiseبنى الله له بيتا في الجنة
Sunan Ibn Majah 757Da'if (Darussalam)
, this is a good thing, not as a rawatib (regular voluntary prayer) but as an absolute nafilah (voluntary prayer).
