Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 659, is this virtue for the one who prays the obligatory prayer and then sits? Or does it include the one who prays a voluntary prayer, such as the Sunnah of the prayer?
Answer:
He is waiting for the prayer. The one who waits for the prayer sits in the mosque, comes early, and sits waiting for the prayer. The angels pray for him while he is in his prayer, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said. He has the reward of the one who is praying while he waits for the prayer. But if he has finished the prayer, this does not include him. Yes.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
The angels keep on asking for Allah's Blessing and Forgiveness for anyone of you as long as he is at his Musalla (praying place) and does not do Hadath (passes wind)
