The virtue of maintaining the regular voluntary prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q287: The questioner says: Sometimes, after I pray the obligatory prayer, I am anxious, or drowsiness or boredom takes hold of me, so I do not pray the regular voluntary prayer. Is there anything required of me for that?
A287: One should maintain the regular voluntary prayers; because they are a confirmed recommended practice. If a person sleeps due to laziness, that is different. As for drowsiness, if it is overwhelming such that it takes control of him and he does not know what he is saying, then its owner is excused, of course. But if it is merely light drowsiness, then you should not leave the regular voluntary prayer. Moreover, the regular voluntary prayer does not take a long time from you; you should maintain it.
