There is a Hadith wherein the Messenger (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) was reported to have mentioned three benefits of performing the 2 Sunnah at home and then attending the Masjid for the fajr prayer.
Could you source the wording of the Hadith and its authenticity? JazakAllah khayran.
Answer:
This Hadith appears in some “non-Hadith” books with the following words:
من صلى ركعتي الفجر في بيته يوسع له في رزقه ويقل المنازع بينه وبين أهله ويختم له بالإيمان
Whoever offers the 2 (sunnah) of Fajr in his home will have his sustenance expanded, the quarrels with his family decreased and he will die with iman
(Maraqil Falah, pg.384-385)
I haven’t found this in a Hadith book.
One should be cautious when a Hadith (like the one in question) is untraceable in any original Hadith source, until its authenticity can be verified.
Update: ‘Allamah Sakhawi (rahimahullah) has declared this narration as a fabrication.
(Al-Ajwibatul Mardiyyah, Hadith: 247)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
