    Number of Rakahs in your prayer

    Report bad ads?



    I always pray the full number of Rakahs for every Salah. So for Isha, I perform up to 17 Rakahs. Sometimes, when I'm feeling unwell, people tell me to just perform the Faraz. I decline and pray the full amount. I am wondering about the consequences of doing a reduced amount. I don't feel like reducing it. I feel bad.

    Re: Number of Rakahs in your prayer

    all, and thank you for your comments. I haven't always been a regular with prayers. It is only very recently I have kept up. For Isha, I am doing the following.

    4 Sunnah
    4 Faraz
    2 Sunnah
    2 Nafl
    3 Vitr
    2 Nafl

    Are these wrong? My parents taught me these and this is what they do... It takes me about 25-30 mins to perform this.

    For Fajr, I was told that I should do 2 Sunnah + 2 Faraz
    For Zohr, 4 Sunnah + 4 Faraz + 2 Sunnah + 2 Nafl
    For Asr, 4 Sunnah + 4 Faraz
    For Maghrib, 3 Faraz + 2 Sunnah + 2 Nafl

    I hope these are correct..

    Re: Number of Rakahs in your prayer

    Salaam,

    To the original poster- yeah thats what I was taught to, but apparently you do not haver to pray all the rakats

    I THINK but I am not sure (someone please clarify) that the MINIMUM rakat for each namaz are the following:

    FAJR- 2 FARZ
    ZUHR-4 FARZ
    ASR-4 FARZ
    MAGHRIB-3 FARZ
    ISHA- 4 FARZ 3 WITR AND SOME SAY ALSO 2 SUNNAT

    am not entirely sure thogh

    The believer has four characteristics: if he is afflicted by any misfortune, he remains patient and steadfast. If he is given anything, he is grateful. If he speaks , he speaks the truth. If he passes judgment on any issue,he is just .
