Question:
May Allah reward you with good. This is a message from one of the brothers who did not mention his name in his message, but he says: Honorable Shaykh, how can one reconcile the hadith “Make the last of your night prayer witr” with the hadith “Night prayer is in pairs, in pairs”?
Answer:
Yes. Night prayer is in pairs, in pairs, and its conclusion is the witr. There is no contradiction between the two hadiths: the prayer of tahajjud is in pairs, in pairs, while the witr prayer is a single rak'ah. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would pray at night as much as Allah willed, and he would conclude his prayer with the witr, meaning a single rak'ah. And if he feared the dawn, he would perform the witr with a single rak'ah. He said, “Make the last of your night prayer witr.” Yes.
