Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the difference between witr and qiyam al-layl?
The Shaykh:
Witr is part of qiyam al-layl, except that it serves as the conclusion of qiyam al-laylSahih Muslim 751b.
The questioner:
He says: If a man stands in prayer…?
The Shaykh:
The Muslim combines the two: he performs tahajjud and concludes with witr. Or he performs only witr and does not perform tahajjud. As for performing tahajjud without witr, this is contrary to the Sunnah. Yes.
