Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks Your Eminence about the Duha prayer: how many rak'ahs is it? And what does a person say when he intends to pray? Does he say, "I intend to pray the Duha prayer"? Or does he say it before the takbir of ihram? Or something else? Please guide us. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The Duha prayer is a confirmed sunnah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged it, urged people to perform it, and advised a group of his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) . Its minimum is two rak'ahs with one taslim. If one prays four, six, eight, or more, all of it is good, but its minimum is two rak'ahs. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
