Sahih al-Bukhari 686 (Book 10, Hadith 80) #660
Praying in Houses

SUMMARY: The Prophet asked permission to enter a house and was granted. He then asked where he should pray in the house, and was shown a place. He prayed there with those present, and finished with Taslim.

Narrated 'Itban bin Malik Al-Ansari: The Prophet (came to my house and) asked permission for entering and I allowed him. He asked, "Where do you like me to pray in your house?" I pointed to a place which I liked. He stood up for prayer and we aligned behind him and he finished the prayer with Taslim and we did the same.
حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَحْمُودُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عِتْبَانَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، قَالَ اسْتَأْذَنَ النَّبِيُّ فَأَذِنْتُ لَهُ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ مِنْ بَيْتِكَ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَأَشَرْتُ لَهُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي أُحِبُّ، فَقَامَ وَصَفَفْنَا خَلْفَهُ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَسَلَّمْنَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet's practice of asking permission before entering someone's home, as well as his practice of praying in houses when given permission to do so. It also shows that it is important to align behind him when he prays, and that we should finish our prayers with Taslim. This teaches us that we should always ask for permission before entering someone else's home, respect their wishes if they allow us to pray there, align behind the Imam when praying together, and finish our prayers with Taslim.
