Imams Should Pray Witr According to All Madhabs

Now brothers and sisters,

regarding Salat al Witter,

let us understand

that

the matter of Witter is very flexible.

Okay?

There are 3 main ways of praying withers.

There is the Hanafi way which is to

pray 3 with 1 taslim at the end.

You pray 2 rakah,

then you sit for

tashahood, you stand up, you read Surah Fatihah

loudly.

After Surah Fatihah, you read some Quran, maybe

Surat Qulhu Allahu Ahad, then you say Allahu

Akbar in a standing position

with raising your hands, and this is wajib

according to the Hanafi madam. And then after

that,

you do unut, short unut, quietly.

Some Hanafi scholars allowed also, loud

congregational

unu.

In a standing position, after you say Allahu

Akbar

with raising your hands

after,

which is in the 3rd raka. And this

is what? Before the Rokkur.

So this is the Hanafi way.

The Jumhur,

they pray witter,

in a different way. 2 rakah,

sit, make the sleep, stand up, and then

you do

one rakah alone.

The shafi' is so the Jomor, this is

the Malekis and the Hanabilah, Although Hanabilah have

different ways.

The Malekis, they prefer this, which is what?

2 raka,

do taslim,

stand up,

no unut,

and do 1 raka.

And they consider any way other than this

is macro as far as I,

understand or as I remember.

The shafi'i

is the opposite.

They they,

prefer

3 consecutive rakas

without sitting in between. So first raka, second

raka, you don't sit for tashahhut at all,

continue for the 3rd raka,

and then you do the qunut

after

the,

after the,

3rd raka, after ruku of the 3rd raka.

So now as you can see that there

are 3 main ways.

All of them are valid,

every single madhab has its own daleel for

that.

The agenda support all of them.

To say brothers and sisters, I know that

unfortunately

prominent

du'aat and prominent, you know, you may call

them scholars,

they say that the Hanafi

madhab is against Sunnah. You cannot say this

because it is impossible

to have

a school of thought that is followed by

thousands

of scholars, and they are doing something that

is against sunnah. I don't want to go

now into the discussion regarding their daleel for

that. Every single madhab, my dear brothers

and sisters whenever it is adopted by the

madhab and the scholars in that madhab, they

don't deny it,

then you cannot say that it against sunnah

brothers.

Be careful, please. So don't say that

the Hanafi witter is against

sunnah. This is maybe in of itself is

a problematic statement.

Okay? So these are the 3 main ways

of doing witter.

I strongly recommend

that in a multicultural,

in a multicultural

society,

in a multi,

a multi madhub society,

salafis, you have Hanafis, you have Hanafis, you

you have shafis. Of course, that doesn't mean

that the salafis are against the hanafis or

they are different. I have my own view

about it that Hanafis and Shafis and,

Malikis are all Salafis. Okay?

To distinguish them from Salafis, this is another

story, but anyway.

You have in each masjid all.

So

what to do?

I strongly prefer

that we as imams

need to teach

all

the congregation

that there are different ways of praying wither

and that

and that the imam is accommodating

always and is

accommodating

the whole congregation.

So one time pray as Hanafi, and this

is what we do in our Masjid in

Darul Hasan. One way pray Shafi'i,

one way

pray Maliki. In Dar al Hassan we have

not yet prayed Shafi'i way, but we've been

praying,

Maliki,

because one of our imams, Jazalullah khairam, is

Maliki. We want to cater for him as

well. And for them it is Magrukh to

pray the 3 raka'ah,

which is the shafi'i way. Yeah? So anyway,

the the the I strongly prefer that, especially

our main masajid,

the big masajid. They should pray wither in

different

ways. One time Hanafi, one time Shafei, one

time,

Maliki,

and they can alternate

between that, my dear brothers,

and sisters. The I I think this will

help us to be united, will help us

to,

be tolerant to each other. And as we

said, that the matter is very flexible. The

prophet

gave us,

he

said

and the prophet

also prayed the 3 together. There is 1

narration and 5 together, and that gave the

flexibility

how to pray Salatul Uyghur.

how to pray Salatul Uyghur.
