Is it better to perform all the regular Sunnah prayers at home?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The majority are of the view that performing supererogatory prayers (Nawafil) and regular prayers (Rawatib) at home is better, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "The best of prayer is a person's prayer in his home, except for the obligatory prayers." Some scholars differentiated between the regular Sunnah prayers of the day and night, or they excluded specific supererogatory prayers like the regular Sunnah prayer of Friday, and they indicated that the detailed explanation regarding this is a narration from Ahmad.
