The answer

It is authentically reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that two rak'ahs upon leaving prevent an evil exit, and two rak'ahs upon entering prevent an evil entry. Performing them is recommended, except during times when prayer is forbidden. Moreover, voluntary prayers in the home are better, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged this, for a man's prayer in his home is better than his prayer in the mosque, except for the obligatory prayers. And Allah places goodness in his home due to his prayers.
