Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The prayer is fifteen rak'ahs.
Answer:
If we exclude the recommended opening prayer, it is fifteen rak'ahs. If he prays thirteen with the recommended opening prayer, it becomes fifteen. If he prays eleven with the recommended opening prayer, it becomes thirteen. If he prays nine with the recommended opening prayer, it becomes eleven. If he prays seven with the recommended opening prayer, which is two light rak'ahs, he prays nine, and so on. The hadith does not count the recommended opening prayer as two light rak'ahs. If you count it and assign it a specific role, it becomes an addition. But the important thing is the witr, in which he prolongs the prayer, strives in supplication and recitation, and then prays. Yes. The most he did was thirteen. This is the maximum he was reported to have done, excluding the recommended opening prayer.
He prayed twenty, or thirty, or a hundred rak'ahs, but he did not see the dawn. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: twenty, not twenty, and not thirty. The night prayer is like, like, if he fears the break of dawn, he prays one rak'ah to make it odd for him, whatever he has shortened. He did not specify a certain number. That is, with one rak'ah. Yes. That is, with a light one. Yes.
The prayer is fifteen rak'ahs.
