The Night Prayer: Between Rooting And Revelation
Authors : Elkarrif Mohamed Reda .
Abstract
Prayer is a bond between servants and their Lord, a tenet of faith and a pivotal duty. It is the first accountability criterion on the Day of Judgment. A sound prayer resonates throughout the faith, and neglecting it leads to spiritual negligence. Divine Mercy established complementary practices alongside obligatory acts, elevating recommended deeds. The night prayer (Qiyam al-Layl) is among them, achieved by the spiritually elevated. Its impact is profound, with diverse opinions among scholars regarding its obligation, timing, and performance details. This prayer serves two roles: it signifies Islam, especially during Ramadan, and concludes recommended prayers, often performed privately for sincerity. Various names—night vigil (Qiyam), Witr (odd-numbered), and Taraweeh (rest prayer)—highlight its diversity. So do these names influence its ruling? Thus, it is best to begin by clarifying its essence and virtues, and then discussing derived rules and their implications
