Witr with two congregations in one mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If there is a congregation in the mosque that prays the tarawih prayer after 'Isha' and concludes with witr, and a second congregation that prays these prayers in the last third of the night and also concludes with witr, in the same mosque, does this count as two witr prayers in one night?
Answer:
No, this is one congregation and that is another congregation; the witr of one congregation is not counted against another congregation. Yes. But suppose I prayed with both congregations; if I prayed with both congregations, then you are satisfied with one witr. Either you pray witr with the later group, or you pray witr with the earlier group. Yes.
