Salam
ive always had a question
its a confusion ive had for months, ive heard of fard prayers, sunnah prayers and nafl prayers. For an example they say 2 rakaats of sunnah prayer..
Are the two rakaahs of sunnah prayer, the same as two rakaahs of fard prayer. Do u do the same actions u do 4 fard prayer for sunnah prayer??? What about nafl? For an example, they said 2 rakaahs of salat ul ishraq, i really want to perform this prayer, but is this performed as the same way fajr prayer is performed except in the intention u say " im performed 2 rakaahs of nafl salaat ul ishraq"
people u have to help me, this confusion is driving me crazy :grumbling
Ishraaq Salat
Rasulullah is reported to have said that Allah Ta'ala says, 'O son of Aadam, perform 4 Rakaats of Salat (Ishraaq) in the early part of the day. I shall help you in accomplishing all your responsibilities during the rest of the day.' (Mishkaat pg.116)
In another narration of Tirmidhi, Rasulullah is reported to have said, 'He who performs Fajr Salat with Jamaat and remains seated in the same place while engaging in Dhikr until after sunrise and thereafter performs 2 Rakaats Nafil Salat, (Ishraaq), he will obtain the Thawaab of one Hajj and one Umrah.' (Tirmidhi).
From the above Ahaadith, we learn that the number of Rakaats to be performed are 2 or 4 Rakaats, and the Mustahabb method of performing it is to remain seated in your place of Salat after Fajr and engage in Dhikr, etc. until sunrise. Then, approximately, 10-15 minutes after sunrise perform 2-4 Rakaats. 'If a person gets occupied in some worldly activity after the Fajr Salat, and after sunrise he offers Ishraaq Salat, this will also be permissible although the reward will be less.' (Bahishti Zewar part2 pg.30)
