Volume 1 Book 11 Hadith 698

Volume 1, Book 11, Number 698:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
Allah’s Apostle made a small room in the month of Ramadan (Sa’id said, “I think that Zaid bin
Thabit said that it was made of a mat”) and he prayed there for a few nights, and so some of his com –
panions prayed behind him. When he came to know about it, he kept on sitting. In the morning, he
went out to them and said, “I have seen and understood what you did. You should pray in your
houses, for the best prayer of a person is that which he prays in his house except the compulsory
prayers.”
