Explaining that the night prayer is performed in pairs of two
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q300: The questioner says: The night prayer is performed in pairs of two. If a person prays four rak'ahs and then says the taslim, then prays four more and says the taslim, and combines three rak'ahs with a single taslim, is this permissible?
A300: The night prayer is performed in pairs of two. One does not pray four rak'ahs with a single taslim; rather, one prays for every two rak'ahs, except in the case of the witr prayer when it is performed as three rak'ahs. Combining the three rak'ahs with a single taslim is permissible; however, it is better to separate the odd number from the witr with a taslim.
