Chapter 7 · Establishing the Prayer and the Sunnah Regarding Themمَا جَاءَ فِي التَّطَوُّعِ فِي الْبَيْتِ
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ طَارِقٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: خَرَجَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ إِلَى عُمَرَ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمُوا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ لَهُمْ: مِمَّنْ أَنْتُمْ؟، قَالُوا: مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ، قَالَ: فَبِإِذْنٍ جِئْتُمْ؟، قَالُوا: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَسَأَلُوهُ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الرَّجُلِ فِي بَيْتِهِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: أَمَّا صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَنُورٌ فَنَوِّرُوا بُيُوتَكُمْ .

What was narrated concerning voluntary Prayers offered at home
“A group from the people of ‘Iraq came to ‘Umar رضی اللہ عنہ and when they came to him, he said to them: ‘Where are you from?’ They said: ‘From the inhabitants of ‘Iraq.’ He said: ‘Have you come with permission?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ Then they asked him about a man’s prayer in his house. ‘Umar said: ‘I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: “As for a man’s prayer in his house, it is light, so illuminate your houses.’”” Another chain with similar wording.
