Chapter on Voluntary Prayers

Zujajat al-Masabih 1734Volume 1

English

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'The first deed for which a servant will be held accountable on the Day of Resurrection is their prayer. If it is sound, they will succeed; if defective, they will fail. If any deficiency is found in their obligatory prayers, the Lord—Exalted and Majestic—will say: "See if My servant has any voluntary prayers to complete what is lacking in the obligatory ones." Then the rest of their deeds will be judged accordingly.' In another narration: 'Zakat will be judged in the same manner, followed by all other deeds.'"
