Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : What is the wisdom, O Bandar, behind voluntary prayer?

Answer : First, to increase the servant's faith. Second, to make up for what is lacking in the obligatory prayers. Yes, it is an increase in faith and righteous deeds, and a completion of what is lacking in the obligatory acts, and so it is with all voluntary acts.
