Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: From the statement of Abu Hurairah radi Allahu anhu, it is understood that there is no alternative to reciting al-Fatihah, and reciting more than this is a cause of reward and virtue, even though the prayer will be valid with only al-Fatihah.

Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
1127. Commentary:
➊ After the obligatory prayers, one should not perform voluntary (nafl) prayers immediately at the same place; rather, one should change location, or create an interval through conversation with someone or by engaging in remembrance (adhkar).
➋ After Jumu‘ah, it is Sunnah to go home and perform two rak‘ahs.
➌ It is the responsibility of the scholars to fulfill the duty of enjoining good and forbidding evil (amr bil-ma‘ruf wa nahi ‘anil-munkar) with courage. However, for this great objective, it is necessary that before exhorting others, one proves oneself worthy of it—that is, one should align one’s own character, conduct, and actions with the purified Sunnah.

Benefit:
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to perform voluntary prayers (nafl) and Sunnah prayers at home.
However, it is also permissible to perform Sunnah prayers in the mosque.
