INTENSITY OF THE VOLUNTARY PRAYER BEFORE MAGRIB

1147

“When we were in Medina and the caller to prayer made the Adhan for the evening prayer the worshipers hastened to the Mosque and offered two units of prayer. If a traveler noticed so many doing this individually he would perhaps have thought the obligatory prayer had been concluded.”

Muslim with a chain up to Anas who related this.

VOLUNTARY PRAYERS BEFORE AND AFTER THE NIGHT PRAYER

Imam Nawawi elucidated this topic by recalling that ibn Omar meant that he offered two voluntary units of prayer after the night prayer with the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, (see 1102). Also, Abdullah bin Mughaffal transmitted a quotation stating the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said that between the two calls for prayer there is a voluntary prayer as previously mentioned.
