Arabic text

٤٧٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ ، عَنْ ‌فُضَيْلِ بْنِ مَرْزُوقٍ، عَنْ ‌عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: «كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي الضُّحَى حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يَدَعُ،» وَيَدَعُهَا حَتَّى نَقُولَ لَا يُصَلِّي هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ.

Commentary

This Hadīth proves that Duhā prayer is a virtuous deed, which is a source to achieve Allāh's pleasure and bliss, and reward and recompense; and a means of the deletion of sins. But Duhā prayer is not compulsory, nor obligatory; it is desirable according to most of the A'immah.
