Islamic Duties / Taraweeh in Ramadan

« on: July 17, 2013, 05:00:38 PM »

Salamun Alaikum,

I would like to know about the taraweeh prayers which are offered during ramadan. Do our Prophet Muhammed (SAW) use to offer taraweeh prayers.

I would like to hear your views about this...

Islamic Duties / Regarding Maghrib Salah as per verse 17:78

« on: May 30, 2013, 10:28:13 PM »

Question in Joseph's Q&A section. Moved to appropriate board. - QM Moderator


Salamun Alaikum

I wanted a clarification regarding verse 17:78

“Aqimi alssalata lidulooki alshshamsi ila ghasaqi allayli waqur-ana alfajri inna qur-ana alfajri kana mashhoodan”

“Establish regular prayers - at the sun's decline till the darkness of the night, and the morning prayer and reading: for the prayer and reading in the morning carry their testimony”

It is mentioned we have to establish prayers (Maghrib ) “at the sun's decline till the darkness of the night” So I would like to know whether we have to pray our maghrib salah from sunset till the darkness of the night (that is approx 45 to 60 minutes) or it is the time period within which we can offer our maghrib salah.

Your guidance would be much appreciated.
