Prayer Upon Returning From a Journey

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) would offer two rak'at of prayer upon returning from a journey in the forenoon.

Narrated Ka'b: Whenever the Prophet returned from a journey in the forenoon, he would enter the Mosque and offer two rak'at before sitting.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَعَمِّهِ، عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنْ كَعْبٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ ضُحًى دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Dedicate time each day towards worshipping God through prayer no matter what else you may be doing or where you may be going at the time .

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was known for his exemplary character and devotion to Allah. He would often perform two rak'at of prayer upon returning from a journey in the forenoon, as narrated by Ka'b. This is an example of how devoted he was to Allah and how important it is for us to follow his example and strive to be closer to Him through prayer. It also shows us that no matter what we are doing or where we are going, we should always remember our purpose in life which is to worship Allah and seek His pleasure.

The Prophet ﷺ taught us that even when we are busy with worldly matters, such as travelling, it is important not to forget our spiritual obligations towards Allah. We should take time out of our day for prayer so that we can stay connected with Him and remember why He has created us on this earth - which is ultimately for His worship alone. This hadith serves as an important reminder for all Muslims about the importance of dedicating time each day towards worshipping Allah through prayer, no matter what else they may be doing or where they may be going at the time.
