Optional Prayer Before Maghrib

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the optional prayer performed by the companions of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) before Maghrib prayer.

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: In the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah , we used to perform two Rak'ah (optional prayer) after sunset before the Maghrib prayer. It was asked: "Did Messenger of Allah perform them?" He replied: "He saw us performing it, but he neither ordered us to perform them nor did he forbid us from doing so". Muslim.
وعنه قال‏:‏ كنا نصلي على عهد رسول الله ركعتين بعد غروب الشمس قبل المغرب، فقيل‏:‏ أكان رسول الله صلاها‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ كان يرانا نصليهما فلم يأمرنا ولم ينهنا‏"‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about an optional prayer that was performed by the companions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ before Maghrib prayer. It is reported that they used to perform two Rak'ah after sunset, and when asked if the Prophet ﷺ also did it, he replied that he saw them doing it but neither ordered nor forbade them from doing so. This teaches us to be mindful of our actions and not do anything without permission or guidance from Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. We should also be careful not to impose our own beliefs on others as we may not know what is right or wrong in certain situations.

The lesson here for children is that they should always seek guidance from their parents or elders when making decisions, as they may have more knowledge and experience than them in certain matters. They should also be respectful towards other people's opinions even if they disagree with them, as everyone has a right to their own opinion.
