The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is reported in a hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he prayed Witr with nine rak'ahs, would sit after the eighth, remember Allah, and make supplication. Does he recite the tashahhud in this sitting, or what does he do?
The Shaykh:
Hmm?
The questioner:
Does he recite the tashahhud in this sitting, or what does he say?
The Shaykh:
It is the tashahhud. The tashahhud is the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), "The praises are for Allah, the prayers are for Allah, and the good things are for Allah," and so on. This is remembrance, tashahhud, and supplication as well. Some of the hadiths are explained by others. Yes.
