The Difference Between Rawatib, Nafilah, and the Emphasized Sunnah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the difference between the following terms: rawatib, nafilah, and muakkadah (emphasized)?
Answer:
Rawatib: These are the prayers for which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us or performed actions indicating that they are rawatib, which he (peace and blessings be upon him) would consistently perform, such as the sunnah of Zuhr, Maghrib, Isha, and Fajr. These are called rawatib. The sunnah of Jumu'ah is also included, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was consistent with it and adhered to it.
Nafilah: This refers to anything other than the obligatory prayer; it is applied to every act of worship that is not obligatory, such as fasting, prayer, and charity. These are called nafilah. Any act of worship that is not obligatory is called nafilah, such as the sunnah of Duha, the rawatib associated with the prayers, the sunnah of Witr, fasting on Mondays and Thursdays, and fasting six days of Shawwal. These are called nawafil. Voluntary charity with money is also called nafilah.
As for muakkadah: This is the emphasized sunnah, which is not general, but rather emphasized. For example, the rawatib are an emphasized sunnah, Witr is an emphasized sunnah, and the Duha prayer is an emphasized sunnah. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
