Is it permissible to pray the Tahajjud prayer after the Witr prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I had already prayed Witr during the Tarawih prayer, so am I able to pray the Tahajjud prayer after it?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. If a person has prayed Witr, it does not prevent him from praying whatever is easy for him after the Witr. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sometimes, when he prayed Witr from the last part of the night, would pray after it; he would pray after it the Maghrib prayer and the Witr of the day. And with this, we pray two rak'ahs after it. So there is no barrier to his praying whatever is easy for him after the Witr. Yes, but it is better to delay the Witr and make it the last of his prayers from the last part of the night; this is what is better. Yes.
