1425. It was narrated that Anas
bin Hakim Dabbi said: "Abu Hurairah said to me: 'When you go to your country, tell them that I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "The first thing for which the Muslim will be brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be the prescribed prayers. If they are complete, all well and good, otherwise it will be said: 'Look and see whether he has any voluntary prayers.' If he has any voluntary prayers, his prescribed prayers will be completed from his voluntary prayers. Then the same will be done with regard to all his obligatory deeds." (Da'if)

Commentary
a. Great attention should be paid to obligatory prayers, fasts, pilgrimage and obligatory charity, so that no negligence finds its way in any one of them.
b. Voluntary prayers, fasts, pilgrimage and charities are also extremely important.
c. The most important among Nafl prayers are the ones generally dubbed as the 'Emphasized Sunnah', i.e., the Rak'ah performed before or after the obligatory prayers. Next in order comes the Tahajjud prayer.
