Tahajjud (Arabic: ???? ?), also known as "night prayer," is a voluntary prayer performed by Muslim followers. It is not one of the five obligatory prayers required of all Muslims, even though the Prophet Muhammad, was recorded on a regular tahajjud prayer and encouraged his friends as well.
Evidence in the Qur'an for Tahajjud prayer (Tahajjud Salah)
In Fiqh As-Sunnah, Sheikh Sayyid Sabiq described the Tahajjud problem as follows:
And for most nights, stay awake with prayer. It goes beyond what is your duty; perhaps your Lord will lift you into a position of glorious glory.
And those who pass the night prostrate before their Lord and stand.

Evidence in the hadith
Alongside the verses of the Qur'an, there are also a number of hadiths (narrated and confirmed from Muhammad) that reinforce the importance of Tahajjud Prayer. In various hadiths, it has been mentioned as Qiyamul Layl (standing night), Salatul Layl (night prayer) and Tahajjud .

The prayer ethics
The following actions are recommended for people wishing to pray Tahajjud:
When going to bed, someone should make an intention to perform the prayer. Abu Darda quoted Muhammad as saying:
Anyone who goes to bed with the intention of getting up and praying at night, but, overcome with sleep, failing to do that, he will record for him what he means, and his sleep will be accounted as charity (an act of mercy for him from his Lord.
Upon waking, it is recommended that someone wipe the face, use a toothbrush, and make a request that has been reported from Muhammad
Abu-Hudhayfah ibn Utbah reported:
Whenever the Prophet intends to go to bed, he will read: (In Your name, O God, I die and I live). "And when he gets up from his sleep, he will say: (All Praise is for God who has made us alive after He makes us die (and sleeps) and for Him is the Resurrection.
One should start with two fast rakat and then one can pray whatever it wants afterwards. Aisha said:
When the Prophet prayed late at night, he would begin his prayer with two quick cycles.
It is recommended that a person awaken the family, because Abu Hurairah quotes Muhammad saying:
May Allah bless those who wake up at night to pray and wake his wife and who, if he refuses to wake up, splashes water on his face. And may God bless the woman who wakes up at night to pray and wake her husband and who, if she refuses, splashes water on her face.
Suggested time for Tahajjud
Tahajjud can be done in the early part of the night, the middle of the night, or the last part of the night, but after the obligatory prayer 'Doha' (evening prayer).
Commenting on this, Ibn Hajar said:
There is no special time in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will do the prayer late at night; but he used to do whatever was most convenient for him.
`Amr ibn` Absah claims that he heard Muhammad say:
The closest that a servant comes to his Lord is in the middle of the last part of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah Almighty at that time, then do it.
Number of Rakaat in Tahajjud
The prayer of Tahajjud does not include a certain number of cycles to be done, nor is there a maximum limit to be made. It will be fulfilled even if someone prays only one `` shelf of Witr after `Isha '; however, it is traditionally prayed with at least two rak'ahs known as shif'a followed by witr because this is what Muhammad did. Abdullah ibn Umar narrates that Muhammad said:
"Salatul Layl (Night Prayer, Tahajjud) is offered as two rak'ahs followed by two rak'ahs and (next) and if any one fears the coming of dawn (dawn prayers) he should pray one rak'ah and this will be Witr for all the rak'ah which he has pray before. "
