How many rak'ahs are Tarawih and Tahajjud prayers, and which is better, in the mosque or at home? Is it permissible to read from the Mus'haf during them? And how were they prayed during the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and his Companions?
Tarawih prayer was not consistently observed during the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him; rather, he prayed it for three nights and then discontinued it for fear that it would be made obligatory.
