The Reward of Voluntary Prayer

SUMMARY: Praying twelve rak'ahs of voluntary prayer in a day and night will result in a house being built for the person in Paradise.

Narrated Umm Habibah: The Prophet as saying: If anyone prays in a day and a night twelve rak'ahs voluntarily (supererogatory prayer), a house will be built from him in Paradise on account of these (rak'ahs).
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَوْسٍ، عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ مَنْ صَلَّى فِي يَوْمٍ ثِنْتَىْ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً تَطَوُّعًا بُنِيَ لَهُ بِهِنَّ بَيْتٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the reward that comes with praying twelve rak'ahs of voluntary prayer in a day and night. A house will be built from him in Paradise on account of these rak'ahs. This is an incredible reward for those who take part in this type of prayer as it is not obligatory but rather done out of love and devotion to Allah. It shows how much Allah values our efforts to come closer to Him through worship and prayers. It also teaches us that we should strive to do more than what is required from us as it can bring great rewards both here on earth and hereafter.
