Ruling on voluntary prayer after the witr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it possible to perform the night prayer after the witr if one has already performed the witr at the beginning of the night? Because I read in one of the Islamic books that there is no prayer after the witrSahih Muslim 751b?
Answer:
There is no harm in that. The recommended practice is to conclude one’s tahajjud with the witr. However, if one performs the witr at the beginning of the night, or stands in prayer at the end of the night and performs the witr, and then it becomes clear that some night remains, there is nothing wrong with praying, and there is no harm, and praise be to Allah, in praying whatever is easy for him after the witr. The entire night is a place for worship and a place for drawing near to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed after the witr. It is established from him that he prayed two rak’ahs after the witr to make clear to people that it is permissible, and that there is no harm in it. Yes.
