THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 7th day of Ramadhan, 1445AH (Sunday 17th March 2024).
*_TIME FOR THE TARAAWEEH SALAAT_*. BismilLah.
Our schorlars based on the Qur'an and Sunnah have narrated that,
the time for Taraaweeh prayer lasts from after ‘Isha’ until dawn comes, so it is valid to perform this prayer at any time during this period.
Imam Al-Nawawi (may ALLAH have mercy on him) said in al-Majmoo’:
The time of Taraaweeh prayer begins when ‘Isha’ prayer is over, and it lasts until dawn comes.
But if a man is going to pray in the mosque as an imam leading the people in prayer, the best is to pray Taraaweeh after ‘Isha’ prayer and not to delay it until the middle or the end of the night, so that this will not cause hardship for the worshippers and some of them may sleep and miss the prayer. This is what the Muslims usually do, they pray Taraaweeh after ‘Isha’ and do not delay it.
But for one who prays Taraaweeh at home, he has the choice: if he wants, he can pray it at the beginning of the night and if he wants he can pray it at the end. Some pray it after Isha and wakeup later to pray Tahajjud and nothing wrong with that as we are encouraged to maximize our acts of voluntary worship this month. May ALLAH accept it from us all. Aameen.
