The Tarawih prayer, offered after the ‘Isha prayer during the blessed month of Ramadan, is one of the most important practices to strengthen our bond with Allah (SWT). It is an act of devotion that offers great rewards, both spiritual and material. If you wish to deepen your religious knowledge, Al-Dirassa Institute, founded in 2012, offers online courses to help you understand and practice the teachings of Islam, including the Tarawih prayer, authentically and in accordance with the Sunnah.
The month of Ramadan is a time for purification and closeness to Allah. Among the many recommended practices, the Tarawih prayer holds a special place. According to the authentic hadith reported by Al-Bukhari, the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: “Whoever prays the night during Ramadan with faith and hoping for Allah’s reward, his previous sins will be forgiven” (Sahih al-Bukhari). This shows the importance of this night prayer and its crucial role in purifying the soul.

The Tarawih prayer is a tradition established by the Prophet (SAW) himself. While it is not obligatory, it is highly recommended, especially during the sacred month of Ramadan. Indeed, the Prophet prayed Tarawih in congregation for several nights and left this practice for the community to continue. It is reported in the hadith of Aisha (RA) that the Prophet said: “Whoever prays the night during Ramadan with faith and hoping for Allah’s reward, his past sins will be forgiven” (Sahih Muslim).
There are various ways to perform the Tarawih prayer, but most practitioners choose to perform it in 8 or 20 rak’ahs, depending on their ability. Here are some practical tips for performing this prayer with devotion:
Focus and Khushu’: Like all prayers, the Tarawih prayer should be performed with humility and concentration (khushu’). Reflect on the profound meanings of the Quranic verses you recite, as Ramadan is a time for deep contemplation.
Take Breaks and Rest: If you are a beginner or feeling tired, feel free to take breaks between rak’ahs to avoid exhaustion. The intention and devotion are crucial, not the quantity.
Quran Recitation: This is an opportunity to memorize Quranic verses. Take advantage of the Tarawih sessions to strengthen your connection with the Book of Allah, especially by reviewing or memorizing surahs.
