Witr Prayer

Re: Witr Prayer

Ya Allah, why did i even bother asking this here

@TLK

Islam main WHY ka koi answer nahi hotaa mere bhai. Prophet said that this “WHY, WHY” is the trait of yahood and its the path of destruction. I mean why do we have 4 rakat for Asr and Isha but only 3 for Maghrib? the answer is “because Allah says so”

firstly i m not a bhai :no:

secondly i m not doing “why why”…i really want to know what islamic scriptures (Qur’an, Sunnah, Hadith, School of thoughts) say abt witr prayer so when someone asks me why/how is it wajib and is there any reasoning (according to Hanafi school of thought) behind why do we have to do Qaza for it if we missed it i know the answer

@lethal_kamikaze

Peace name_105,
The Hanafis classify the nawafil performed along with the fara’id into ‘masnunah’ and ‘mandubah’.

(1) The ‘masnunah’ are five: two rak’ahs before the subh; four before the zuhr, and two after it, except on Friday; two after the maghrib and two after the ‘isha’ prayer.
(2) The ‘mandubah’ are four: four -or two- rak’ahs before the 'asr, six after the maghrib, and four before and after the ‘isha’ prayer.

thank you but that doesn’t answer my question, may be if u tell me about wajib paryers that may help
