Congregation Prayer led by the Holy Prophet (sa) in his Home

Hazrat Anas bin Malik(ra) states, “The Holy Prophet (sa) would often sit with us. He would say to my younger brother in a lighthearted manner: ‘O Abu Umair! What did Nuwair do?’ Abu Umair had a pet bird which was called Nuwair. When it died – or perhaps it flew away – Abu Umair was distraught. Hence the Holy Prophet (sa) would say this to him in a light-hearted manner. On many occasions, the Holy Prophet (sa) would be in our home when it would be the time for prayer. Thus, the Holy Prophet (sa) would order the cloth to be laid down which he would usually sit on. Hence, we would clean the cloth and place it for prayers, the Holy Prophet (sa) would stand up to lead the prayers and we would stand in congregation behind him.”
