Sahih Muslim — The Book of Prayer - Travellers

A house will be built in Paradise, for anyone who prays in a day and a night twelve rak’ahs; and she added: I have never abandoned (observing them) since I heard it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Some of the other narrators said the same words: I have never abandoned (observing them) since I heard (from so and so).

If any Muslim servant (of Allah) performed ablution, and performed it well, and then observed every day, the rest of the hadith is the same.

“I saw her wash tub filled with blood. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to her: ‘Stop (praying) for as long as your period prevents you, then perform Ghusl.'” (Another chain)

“When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to Al-Madinah, he alighted in the upper part of Al-Madinah among the tribe called Banu ‘Amr bin ‘Awf and he stayed with them for fourteen nights. Then he sent for the chiefs of Banu An-Najjar, and they came with their swords by their sides. It is as if I can see the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on his she-camel with Abu Bakr riding behind him (on the same camel) and the chiefs of Banu An-Najjar around him, until he dismounted in the courtyard of Abu Ayyub. The Prophet (ﷺ) used to offer the prayer wherever he was when the time for prayer came, and he would pray even in sheepfolds. Then he ordered that the Masjid be built. He sent for the chiefs of Banu An-Najjar, and when they came, he said: ‘O Banu An-Najjar, name me a price for this grove of yours.’ They said: ‘By Allah, we will not ask for its price except from Allah.'” Anas said: “In (that grove) there were graves of idolators, ruins and date-palm trees. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered that the graves of the idolators be dug up, the ruins be leveled and the date-palm trees be cut down. The trunks of the trees were arranged so as to form the walls facing the Qiblah. The stone pillars were built at the sides of its gate. They started to move the stones, reciting some lines of verse, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was with them when they were saying: ‘O Allah! There is no good except the good of the Hereafter. So bestow victory on the Ansar and the Muhajirin.'”

Umar bin Al-Khattab said: “(The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said): “Whoever sleeps and misses his nightly portion, and reads it between Subh and Zuhr prayers, it is as if he read it at night.'”

“Whoever misses his Wird at night, let him recite it during prayer before Zuhr, and that will be equivalent to night prayers.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever persists in praying twelve rak’ahs each day and night, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will build for him a house in Paradise: Four before Zuhr and two after Zuhr, two rak’ahs after Maghrib, two rak’ahs after Isha’ and two rak’ahs of Fajr.”

And I never stopped praying them from the time I heard that.'”

“I was sitting with some people in Al-Kufah in a large gathering of the Ansar, among whom was ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Laila. They spoke about the story of Subai’ah and I mentioned what ‘Abdullah bin ‘Utbah bin Mas’ud had said in meaning.” (One of the narrators) Ibn ‘Awn’s saying was: “when she gives birth.” Ibn Abi Layla said: ‘But his (paternal) uncle did not say that.’ I raised my voice and said: ‘Would I dare to tell lies about ‘Abdullah bin ‘Utbah when he is in the vicinity of Al-Kufah?'” He said: “Then I met Malik and said: ‘What did Ibn Mas’ud say about the story of Subai’ah?’ He said: ‘He said: “Are you going to be too strict with her and not allow her the concession (with regard to the ‘Iddah)?
