‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar was one of the keenest of the Sahabah to follow the practice of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), to the extent that he would strive to find out about the actions and words of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). In this report, Nafi‘, the freed slave of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar, narrates that Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to offer the supererogatory [Sunnah]prayer in the same place in which he had offered the obligatory prayer, without moving from that spot. Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddiq, who was one of the seven fuqaha’ of Madinah,also did that; he would offer the supererogatory [Sunnah] prayer in the same place in which he had offered the obligatory prayer. This was also the view of Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and those who followed him. It was said with regard to this action of Ibn ‘Umar that he did not do that if he was leading the prayer; rather he would do it when he was praying behind an imam. In Sahih Muslimit is narrated from ‘Amr ibn ‘Ata’ (may Allah have mercy on him) that Nafi‘ ibn Jubayr sent him to al-Sa’ib ibn UkhtiNamir to ask him about something that Mu‘awiyah saw him doing in the prayer. He said: Yes, I prayed Jumu‘ah with him in al-Maqsurah, and when the imam said the taslim, I stood up in the same place and prayed [the supererogatory prayer]. When he came in, he sent for me and said: Do not do what you did again; when you have prayed Jumu‘ah, do not connect another prayer to it until you have spoken or moved, for the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) instructed us to do that, not to connect another prayer [to Jumu‘ah prayer by offering it immediately after the first prayer] until we had spoken or moved. This indicates that the worshipper should move from his spot if he wants to offer a supererogatory prayer after an obligatory prayer..
