How to Pray the Shaf' and the Witr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
How is the prayer of the shaf' and the witr performed? Is the basis to pray them together, or what is the method? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The best and preferred method is to pray the two rak'ahs of the shaf' alone with one taslim, then stand up and come to the witr with the single rak'ah of the witr. If you pray them all together with one taslim, or if you recite the three rak'ahs in a row with one taslim, that is permissible, praise be to Allah. But it is better to pray the shaf' and the witr with two taslims, as we mentioned. Yes.
