Is it permissible for a Muslim to pray two rak'ahs after the 'Isha prayer to complete the regular Sunnah prayers, or should he intend them with the first two rak'ahs of the Tarawih prayer?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The two rak'ahs after 'Isha' are confirmed . It is preferable to perform them after the 'Isha' prayer and before commencing the Tarawih. It is permissible to pray them by following the Imam in Tarawih, but it is not valid to combine them with Tarawih with a single intention.
