Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed the Tarawih prayer with the Companions for a number of days. What is the number of rak'ahs he prayed? And is there a report specifying that number?
Answer:
It appears, and Allah knows best, that it was his custom to pray thirteen or eleven rak'ahs, whatever he felt in his heart at the time. However, he would lengthen the prayer to a degree that most people could not bear.
