Time for Salaah!

My respectable brothers and sisters in Islam, Asr prayer is fast approaching, so let get ourselves prepare with joy, cleanliness and humility to prostrate ourselves for Almighty Allah.  In Islam, after performing the obligatory deeds, one of the best ways of drawing closer to Allah is by performing voluntary good deeds. So therefore (before) performing Asr prayer, one can perform 4 sunnah rakats (seperately).  However, this does not add up to the 12 main Sunnah prayers (which in arabic is called Rawatib) as the Prophet (pbuh) mentioned in a hadith, "Whoever prays optionally twelve rakats every one day and night, Allah will reward him by an established dwelling in the paradise" (Rep by Bukhari).  So one can leave the Sunnah prayers of Asr or prays it if one wants more rewards. But (after) Asr (there is definitely no) Sunnah Prayer to be performed for Asr. Narrated Ibn `Umar: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whoever misses the `Asr prayer (intentionally) then it is as if he lost his family and property." ●[Sahih al-Bukhari ] May Allah help us to perform our Salaah well and on time.
