What are the minimum rakats you have to pray for each namaaz? (OP)
Can anyone tell me the minimum amount of rakaats that you have to pray for each namaaz? is it:
Fajr: 2 sunnats 2 fardh
Zohr:4 sunnats 4 fardh, (i was told you can pray 4 fardh and 2 sunnats)
Asr: 4 fardhs
Magrib: 3 fardhs and 2 sunnats
Esha: I was told you can pray 4 fardhs and 3 witr
[Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) has narrated that he performed two Rak`ah after the Fard prayer of `Isha' with the Prophet (PBUH). `Abdullah bin Maghaffal has narrated that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) has said, "There is a Salat between every Takbir and Adhan.''
This proves that apart from the four Rak`ah Fard, there are also two Rak`ah Sunnah of the `Isha' prayer). See Ahadith No. 1098 and 1099.
