Imām an-Nawawī رحمه الله said:

"The Prophet ﷺ encouraged the performance of voluntary prayers in the house, because it is easier to hide ones good deeds and thus (you are) less likely to show off. Additionally, the house will be blessed as a result of these prayers and mercy will descend upon it. This will (also) cause the devils to flee."

[Fatḥ ul-Bārī, 2/264]

Ibn al-Qūdāmah رحمه الله said:

فَصْلٌ: وَالتَّطَوُّعُ فِي الْبَيْتِ أَفْضَلُ؛ لِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ -: «عَلَيْكُمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ صَلَاةِ الْمَرْءِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا الصَّلَاةَ الْمَكْتُوبَةَ» . رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ. وَعَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ: «صَلَاةُ الْمَرْءِ فِي بَيْتِهِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ فِي مَسْجِدِي هَذَا، إلَّا الْمَكْتُوبَةَ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد. وَقَالَ: «إذَا قَضَى أَحَدُكُمْ الصَّلَاةَ فِي مَسْجِدِهِ فَلْيَجْعَلْ لِبَيْتِهِ نَصِيبًا مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ؛ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ جَاعِلٌ فِي بَيْتِهِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ خَيْرًا» . رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ. وَلِأَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي الْبَيْتِ أَقْرَبُ إلَى الْإِخْلَاصِ. وَأَبْعَدُ مِنْ الرِّيَاءِ، وَهُوَ مِنْ عَمَلِ السِّرِّ، وَفِعْلُهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَانِيَةٌ وَالسِّرُّ أَفْضَلُ.

"Praying the Voluntary Prayers in the Home;

And performing the voluntary prayers in the house is preferable according to the statement of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ (who said): "So perform prayer in your houses, for verily the best prayer of a person is in his house, except for the obligatory prayers."- [Narrated by Muslim]

And on the authority of Zayd b. Thābit رضي الله عنه that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The prayer of a person in his house is better than his prayer in my masjid, except for the obligatory prayers." - [Narrated by Abū Dāwūd]

And he ﷺ said: "When any one of you observes prayer in the masjid, he should reserve a part of his prayer for his house, for Allāh would make the prayer as a means of betterment in his house." - [Narrated by Muslim]

For (optional) prayer in the house is nearer to ikhlāṣ (sincerity), and further removed from riyāʾ (showing off), and it is a secret action, and performing (optional) prayer in the masjid is public, and the secret action is better (than a public one)."

Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen رحمه الله:

“Mawlid has NO BASIS (in Islām), if it was legislated by Allāh then the Prophet ﷺ would have celebrated it or he would have conveyed it to his Ummah.”

Four signs of wretchedness

It is reported that Al-Hasan Al-Basri رحمه الله said:

“Four signs of wretchedness are:
1. [having] a hard heart,
2. dry eyes [that never cry],
3. extended hopes [about this life],
4. and greed and keenness to amass worldly things

[Ibn Abi Al-Dunya, Kitab Al-Zuhd article 36]

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:

‎“Whoever is arrogant against submitting to the truth — ‎Allāh will humiliate him, degrade him, belittle him and make him lowly.”
