Many hadiths are emphasized by the fact that it is very important to pray. When asked how to perform Vitra prayer, Muslims turn to the rules prescribed in the hadiths. The name of this prayer is translated as odd. The thing is that it has an odd number of racquets. When considering how to perform the Vitra prayer on the Sunnah, Muslims usually choose 3 rak'ahs.
About the time
The time of the departure of this prayer is clearly regulated. So, the time of prayer Vitra - after the prayers of Isha, it lasts until dawn. The standing of this prayer is the Sunnah, which was legalized in Sharia. However, Imam Abu Hanifa considered her a Wajib.
About order
When asked how to perform Vitra prayer, Muslims indicate two different ways. According to the first, 2 rak'ahs must be made. After that, the duet “Kunut” is performed before the waist bow.
The second way is to perform three rak'ahs, but with differences from the Maghrib prayer. In this method, it is not necessary to bow down after the second rak'ah. He immediately begins the third rak'ah. In addition, when determining how to perform the Vitra prayer, Muslims decided to read the last part - the third rak'ah - to the waist bow.
Vitra is sometimes considered as part of the night prayers, which are also considered to be Sunnah. After reading the prayer Vitr, it is important to end it with an additional rak'ah. Prayer is read both after Ish and before going to bed. The imams, pointing out how to perform the prayer of Vitr, note that it is especially beneficial to read it in the last third of the night. But if the believer is afraid that in the middle of the night he will not wake up with such a purpose, it is better to read it before going to bed.
About meaning
According to legend, the Prophet Muhammad performed the prayer Vitra every day. This is one of the main prayers that make up for inaccuracies or inaccuracies that are allowed when making fards. Answering the question whether Vitra prayer is required, the Messenger of Allah said that such a prayer is a duty for every Muslim.
Instruction manual
The Vitra is performed in the same way as the three rak'athas of the fard of evening prayers, excluding intention, short suras. It is important to note that if a Muslim has not yet learned the duo Kunut, he can initially replace him with a dua.
After the dua has been read, a bow is made. The Shafiites of the Dua read in the third rak'ah without raising their hands, like the Hanafites. When a Muslim performed a bow and rose, he did not immediately bow down to the bow. He first reads the dua Kunut, and then concludes the prayer with a bow of the earth.
Do I need to reimburse Vitr?
Theologians believe that if Vitra is missed, it makes no sense to compensate for it - this is not a sin. At the same time, a person who misses this prayer loses the benefits that are contained in following the Sunnah of the Prophet. If a person intended to perform this prayer, but overslept, the Prophet recommended to wake up and perform it. Thus, it is possible to replenish the Vitra if the time necessary for prayer was missed.
Many people believe that filling this prayer is necessary. However, some point out that this is not necessary, although there is no prohibition on this. There is controversy over the time during which the prayer that was missed can be filled. According to one version, you can make up for it before the morning prayers. According to another, before the sun enters the zenith phase. And someone pointed out that you can do the replenishment before the afternoon prayer. There is another opinion: you can replenish the Vitr during the following years at night or in the daytime.
Other prayers after prayer Vitra
Some Muslims have questions, is it possible to send other prayers after the prayer of Vitra was performed? The Prophet made 2 rak'ahs of additional prayers after the performance of Vitra. That is, when Vitr is not postponed to the end of the night, but sends at the beginning of it, after such a prayer it is permissible to read more prayers. But it’s impossible to read Vitra again. That is, more than one Vitra per night is not allowed.
Despite the fact that this prayer is final, when a person performs it at the beginning of the night, being afraid to oversleep, and then wakes up before the time of morning prayers, he can read additional prayers - for example, Tahajud, without reciting Vitr-Namaz again.
Namaz Vitr for women
A very common question is how to perform Vitra namaz for women? At the first rak'ah, when men raise their hands in the direction of the palms towards Kybla, women raise their hands in the same direction, but with their fingers closed so that the fingertips are at shoulder level.
While standing in Kyama, when men put their right hand on their left, clutching the fingers of their left hand, women put their right hand on their left and keep them at chest level.
After, when a bow bow is made, the men put their hands on their knees, keeping their legs and back straight, and the women do not bend their knees and back completely, but they put their fingers together.
When straightening, already after the pronouncement of “Rabbna Lakyal Hamd”, an earthly bow is made. During it, when men do not touch the ground with their elbows, women press their elbows to their sides, and do not lift their feet off the ground, their eyes look at the tip of the nose.
After, while sitting between two bows, the forehead comes off the ground, a person sits on his knees. Men sit on their left foot, and point with the fingers of their right foot in the direction of Kybla. Women sit on their left thigh, picking up both legs under themselves and directing their feet to the right side, turning their fingers to Kyble.
Coming out of Sujud, you need to raise your head, hands and rise from your knees. Men, reading the second rakah, fold their hands on their stomach, and women on their chest.
Further, already during the last sitting, “Allahu Akbar” is pronounced, men again sit in the same way, and women do the same.
About school disagreements
Many schools and scholars argued about how to perform the Vitr prayer correctly. In Hanafi and Malikite theological schools, the performance of three rak'ahs was recognized as the best option. The order, according to their version, should be the same as that of evening prayers - maghribs. There is one exception here - in every rak'ah they read the Quranic sura. In the third, they read dua-kunut. As a proof of the legitimacy of this version, her supporters cite a hadith from Aisha - “The Prophet made a vitra of 3 rak'ahs, saying a greeting only at the very end of the prayer.”
In the second method, which is permitted in the Shafi'i and Hanbali madhhab, the Vitr namaz is also performed with three rakahats. However, the difference here is that when you read the second rak'ah, they do not sit. The believer immediately rises to read “Fatih” - this is an additional sura. Then takbir is performed, pronounced dua-kunut. Further, the prayer ends in the usual way. Proof of the validity of this method is given in the Blessed Sunnah. An-Nasai and Hakim give a Hadith, which indicates that the Messenger of Allah performs the prayer, not sitting between the second and third rak'ah.
In the Malikite madhhab another way of reading Vitra prayer is very popular. His representatives divided the prayer in half. First of all, they make two rak'ahs, pronouncing a greeting - to salam. Then they stop for a short while, and then they read one more raccoon. Moreover, they refer to the hadith from Ibn Umar - it indicates how the Prophet Muhammad divides the prayer of Vitr in half - he reads two rak'ahs with greeting and one rak'ah additionally.
In addition, a number of Muslims make more than three rak'ahs a day. There may be five, and seven, and all eleven. Such a procedure is permitted in Shafiite and Hanbali madhhabs. In addition, in these theological schools it is allowed to perform Vitra prayer in one rak'ah. Confirmation of the validity of this version is contained in the Sunnah of the Final Messenger of Allah Al-Bukhari. There is a hadith in which the Prophet Muhammad indicates that if the dawn comes very soon, it is permissible to read the prayer Vitra in one rak'ah.
Thus, all of the listed varieties of Vitr prayer are practiced by Muslims, and everyone has a right to exist.
