Observe prayer at its prescribed time and join congregational prayers whenever possible .

This hadith highlights the importance of praying on time. It was narrated by Abu Dharr who reported that the Messenger of Allah struck his thigh and asked him how he would act if he survived among people who delay their prayers beyond their prescribed time. The Prophet then advised him to observe prayer at its prescribed time and if the Iqama is pronounced, then join the congregation. This hadith teaches us that we should not delay our prayers beyond their prescribed times as it is a sin in Islam. We should also try to join congregational prayers whenever possible as it has more reward than praying alone. Moreover, this hadith also teaches us about punctuality which is an important trait for any Muslim to have in order to be successful in life.
