Offering Nafilah Prayers after Witr


418

Q: Is it permissible to offer Nafilah (supererogatory) prayers after Witr (Prayer with an odd number of units) prayer? A: If you fear that you might be unable to wake up during the last portion of the night, you have to offer Witr before going to sleep. If you awaken at that time, then you are entitled to offer Nafilah prayers as you wish (Part No. 6; Page No. 66


A: If you fear that you might be unable to wake up during the last portion of the night, you have to offer Witr before going to sleep. If you awaken at that time, then you are entitled to offer Nafilah prayers as you wish (Part No. 6; Page No. 66) and you do not need to offer Witr prayer once again. On the other hand, if you are certain that you will wake up during the last portion of the night, then you should delay performing Witr and make it the last Salah you offer at night, as this is by far better.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
