Pray regularly with persistence and dedication; Value knowledge over wealth; Respect teachers; Follow teachings of prophet PBUH; Show gratitude towards those who share their knowledge with you.

This hadith speaks about the voluntary prayers of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). It was narrated by Asim bin Damrah that they asked Ali about the voluntary prayers of the Prophet during the day. Ali said that it was sixteen rak'ahs which were done during the day and it is very rare for anyone to persist in doing that. Wakee told us that his father said Habeeb bin Abi Thabit said to Abu Ishaq he would not like to have gold as much as would fill this mosque in return for this hadeeth of yours. This hadith teaches us how important prayer is and how persistence can help us achieve our goals even if they are difficult or rare. It also shows us how valuable knowledge is since Habeeb bin Abi Thabit valued knowledge more than gold which fills a mosque!
