مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ أُصَلِّي فِي وَقْتِ فَرِيضَةٍ نَافِلَةً قَالَ« نَعَمْ فِي أَوَّلِ اَلْوَقْتِ إِذَا كُنْتَ مَعَ إِمَامٍ تَقْتَدِي بِهِ فَإِذَا كُنْتَ وَحْدَكَ فَابْدَأْ بِالْمَكْتُوبَةِ»
Muhammad ibn Yahya narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id from Uthman ibn Isa from Ishaq ibn Ammar who said:
I asked: “May I pray a supererogatory prayer during the time of an obligatory prayer?” He said: "Yes, at the beginning of the time, if you are with an Imam whom you follow. But if you are alone, then start with the obligatory prayer."
