A Guide to the Evidence for Making Up Deficiencies in Obligatory Acts through Voluntary Acts on the Day of Resurrection

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the evidence that the deficiency of those who have obligatory duties is made up by voluntary acts on the Day of Resurrection?

Answer:
It is based on the hadith that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, on the Day of Resurrection, will account for a man and find that he has been deficient in his obligatory duties. Allah will say:
Look! Are there any voluntary (prayers) for my worshipper?انْظُرُوا هَلْ لِعَبْدِي مِنْ تَطَوُّعٍ
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 413Sahih (Darussalam)
? If they say yes, He will say: It will be made up from voluntary acts. A hadith with this meaning has come. Yes.
