The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it true that you stated that dividing the Tarawih prayer in the last ten days of Ramadan into a prayer at the beginning of the night and a prayer at the end of the night is a religious innovation (bid'ah)?
The Shaykh:
An innovation, what?
The questioner:
Dividing the Tarawih prayer in the last ten days.
The Shaykh:
The Tarawih prayer is not divided. The Tarawih prayer is not divided. It remains as it is at the beginning of the night, and the Tahajjud prayer is added to it at the end of the night. It is not divided. Who said this? The Tarawih prayer remains in its place and at its time, and whatever is easy of standing in night prayer is added to it. Yes.
