Order. Surely he who You befriend is not disgraced. Blessed are
You, our Lord! and highly exalted. We ask forgiveness from You
and turn to You; and may Allah praise and venerate the Prophet.
TAHAJJUD PRAYER
Another voluntary prayer spoken of in the Holy Qur'an is
Tahajjud.275 Allah tells Prophet Muhammad sg, "And pray in the
small watches of the night: [it would be] an additional prayer [or
spiritual profit] for you. Soon will your Lord raise you to a station
of honor and glory.''276
The Tahajjud prayer is offered between midnight and dawn,
after the worshipper has had some sleep. It may consist of two or
more rak'ahs, offered in pairs. The Tahajjud prayer is concluded
with two rak'ahs of Shaf', and one rak'ah of Witr prayer. If a wor-
shipper is offering the Tahajjud prayer and not enough time re-
mains to complete the Witr before the time of the Dawn prayer, he
may stop and offer the Witr rak'ah after any pair of rak'ahs.
