Pearl of Wisdom

'Verily the Prophet (SAWA) once passed by a pile of wheat, so he placed his hand in and his fingers hit upon some moisture, at which he asked the vendor, 'What is this O vendor of wheat?' to which he replied, 'The rain fell on it O Prophet of Allah.' The Prophet then asked him, 'Then why did you not place it at the top of the pile that people might see it?! He who swindles us is not of us.?

Prophet Muhammad al-Mustafa [sawa]

Question : #559

Category: Salaat / Prayers

Subject:	Salaat Tahajjud
Question:	Salaam If I read Salaat Tahajjud, should i not read witr with Isha' prayer, and read the witr instead after Salaat Tahajjud? Does Salaat Tahajjud still count if you pray it 3 hours before Fajr, then go to sleep after praying it, and then wake up at Fajr time? Or does Tahajjud have to be just before Fajr? jazakallah
Answer:	Alaykum Salaam, I apologies if I haven't understood your question properly. Q - If I read Salaat Tahajjud, should i not read witr with Isha' prayer, and read the witr instead after Salaat Tahajjud? A - Salah Witr is part of Salatul Tahajjud / Salat ul Layl. As the prayer consists of 3 parts and a total of 11 Rakats. Namaz-e-Shab (2 rakats) x 4 Namaz-e-Shafa (2 rakats) x 1 Namaz-e-Witr (1 rakat) x 1. Hence it has no impact on Salat ul Isha. Q - Does Salaat Tahajjud still count if you pray it 3 hours before Fajr, then go to sleep after praying it, and then wake up at Fajr time? A - Yes it does. Q - Or does Tahajjud have to be just before Fajr? A - Time for Salatul Tahajjud ends at True Dawn (Fajr)
