Is Tarawih Prayer Bid`ah?
• How can Tarawih prayer be a Bid`ah when the Prophet encouraged us to do it and the Muslims unanimously agreed that it is recommended!? • The Prophet prayed Tarawih in congregation with his companions for many nights, then he stopped doing that lest it be made obligatory upon the Muslims. • The time for Tarawih prayer is from after `Isha’ prayer until dawn comes and there is no specific number of rak`ahs for Tarawih prayer.53,491Is it essential for him to stay with the imam until the end of Taraweeh prayer in order to be rewarded?
28,201How to Pray Witr If You Don’t Know Du’a Al-Qunut
There is nothing wrong with reading du’a al-qunut from a piece of paper or a booklet in Witr prayer until one is able to memorize it. It is not obligatory for the du’a of Qunut to be in the words narrated from the Prophet.356,938Can You Recite Qunut in Witr Every Night?
If you recite Qunut in Witr prayer every night, there is nothing wrong with that. And if you omit it on some occasions so that the people will know that it is not obligatory, there is nothing wrong with that either.30,131He followed his imam in Taraweeh to pray ‘Isha’, then he followed him again for the last two rak’ahs

20,686His work hours conflict with Taraweeh prayers – what should he do?
17,564Is Reading Quran From Mobile in Tarawih Permissible?
Reading from the computer or mobile during prayer comes under the same rulings as reading from the Mus-haf. The Shafi`is and Hanbalis view that it is permissible to read from the Mus-haf while praying, but Imam Abu Hanifah views that the prayer is invalidated if one reads from the Mus-haf.112,573Praying Tarawih in congregation in Ramadan is Sunnah and not a bid’ah (innovation)
40,225How Long Is Tarawih Prayer?
1- If the recitation in tarawih prayer is kept short, then the number of rak`ahs is increased to 41 rak`ahs, as some of the imams said. 2- If a person wants to limit himself to eleven rak`ahs or thirteen rak`ahs in tarawih prayer, then he should lengthen the recitation and other essential parts of the prayer.32,660
