عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّمَا أَفْضَلُ؟ الْصَّلَاةُ فِي بَيْتِي أَوِ الْصَّلَاةُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ؟ قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَلَا تَرَى إِلَى بَيْتِي؟ مَا أَقْرَبَهُ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ! فَلَأَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي بَيْتِي أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً)) (سنن ابن ماجة: 1378)
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): Is it better for me to pray at home or in the mosque? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you not see my house? It is very close to the mosque, but still, praying at home is more beloved to me than praying in the mosque, except for the obligatory prayer (which should be performed in the mosque).
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! عَمِلْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ عَمَلًا، قَالَ: ((مَا هُوَ؟)) قَالَ: نِسْوَةٌ مَعِيَ فِي الدَّارِ قُلْنَ لِي: إِنَّكَ تَقْرَأُ وَلَا نَقْرَأُ، فَصَلِّ بِنَا، فَصَلَّيْتُ ثَمَانِيًا وَالْوِتْرَ، قَالَ: فَسَكَتَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: فَرَأَيْنَا أَنَّ سُكُوتَهُ رِضًا بِمَا كَانَ
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I performed an action last night. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What action was that? He said: There were some women with me at home, they said to me: You recite the Qur'an and we do not, so lead us in prayer. Thus, I led them in eight rak'ahs and witr. In response, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. They say: We considered the silence of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as a sign of his approval.
