A man prayed the obligatory prayer alone, then found a congregation and prayed with them; does he receive twenty-seven degrees for that?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The Shaykh : He says: A man prayed the obligatory prayer alone, then found a congregation and prayed with them; does he receive twenty-seven degrees for that?
No, he does not receive that, because his first prayer is the obligatory one, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

when you pray in your camp then you come to a Masjid with a congregation, then pray with them. That will be a voluntary prayer for you.

إذا صليتما في رحالكما ثم أتيتما مسجد جماعة فصليا معهم فإنهما لكما - أي الثانية - نافلة

Jami` at-Tirmidhi 219Sahih (Darussalam)
