As we pray taraweeh and witr in the masjid with imaam, i couldnt actually pray tahajjud after a small nap as i prayed witr with the imam. so can i have intention of praying taraweeh when the imam praying witr and after the last one rakah tashahudd can i complete it as a two rakkah taraweeh and go home and do the tahajjud and witr with my convinience?

In our mosque 2 imams alternately conduct taraweeh and after 20 rakaths a new imam who was praying behind in the first row conducts witr. so if I go hone after 20 rakats will I get the reward of praying the entire night?

Is there any Sahih hadith which says that “Reciting Ayatul Kursi after Fard Salat will cause a person to stay in Allah’s protection until the next Salat ?

Prayer
25 Jun

I don’t know of such a hadeeth! The hadith is: “Whoever recites Aayatul Kursi after every Fard (Fard Salah),… …only death is keeping him/her from entering Jannah. (As soon as he/she dies, will enter Jannah) (Nisa’i, Ibne Habban, Ibnelsani A’n Abi Amatah Albahili Radiallah Anhu)

someone argued with me today saying i’m confusing taraweeh,qiyamul layl and tahajjud, and that they’re all different, whereas just an hour before that i had seen a vid of yours explaining that there are only two night prayers, qiyamul layl being anything after isha and tahajjud. who gave taraweeh its name then?
