The hadith on building a house in Paradise for one who prays ten rak'ahs

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks about the hadith that says: “Whoever prays ten rak'ahs other than
apart from the obligatory prayers, Allah (SWT) will build for him a house in Paradiseالفريضة بنى الله له بيتا في الجنة
Sunan an-Nasa'i 1811Da'if (Darussalam)
.” Does this hadith refer specifically to the twelve rawatib (regular voluntary prayers), or does a Muslim who prays these rak'ahs, even if they are not rawatib, receive the reward through them?

Answer:
I do not know this hadith, and I have not come across it. However, the rawatib (regular voluntary prayers) accompanying the obligatory prayers are two rak'ahs before the midday prayer, two after it, two after the sunset prayer, two after the night prayer, and two before the dawn prayer, making ten rak'ahs. Yes.
