"Whoever would like to meet Allah tomorrow (i.e. on the Day of Judgement) as a Muslim, let him preserve these five (daily) prayer when the call for them is given, for they are part of the ways of guidance, and Allah prescribed the ways of guidance to your Prophet (saw). By Allah, if each of you prays in his house, you will have abandoned the Sunnah of your Prophet (saw), and if you abandon the Sunnah of your Prophet (saw) you will go astray. I remember when no one stayed behind from the prayer except a hypocrite who was known for his hypocrisy. I have seen a man coming supported by two others, until he joined the row (of worshippers). There is no man who purifies himself and does it well, and comes to the masjid (mosque) and prays there, but for every step he takes, Allah raises him in status one degree thereby, and takes away one of his sins."

"The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: 'Whoever leaves his house for the prayer and says: 'Allahumma inni as aluka bi-haqqis-sa ilina alaika, wa as aluka bi-haqqi mamshaya hadha, fa inni lam akhruj asharan wa la batran, wa la riya'an, wa la sum'atan, wa kharajtu-ttiqa'a sukhtika wabtigha'a mardatika, fa's'aluka an tu'idhani minan-nari wa an taghfira li dhunubi, Innahu la yaghfirudh-dhunuba illa Anta. (O Allah, I ask You by the right that those who ask of You have over You, and I ask You by virtue of this walking of mine, for I am not going out because of pride or vanity, or to show off or make a reputation, rather I am going out because I fear Your wrath and seek Your pleasure. So I ask You to protect me from the Fire and to forgive me my sins, for no one can forgive sins except You),' Allah will turn His Face towards him and seventy thousand angels will pray for his forgiveness."

"There was a man among the Ansar whose house was the furthest house in Al-Madinah, yet he never missed prayer with the Messenger of Allah (saw). I felt sorry for him and said: 'O so-and-so, why do you not buy a donkey to spare yourself the heat of the scorching sand, to carry you over the stony ground, and keep you away from the vermin on the ground?' He said: 'By Allah! I do not want to live so close to Muhammad (SAW) (saw).' This troubled me until I came to the house of the Prophet (saw) and mentioned that to him. He called (that man) and asked him, and he said something similar, and said that he was hoping for the reward for his steps. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, 'You will have that (reward) that you sought.'" (Sahih)
