What is the ruling on performing Tahajjud prayers in mosques, especially for women, and what is the ruling on prolonging the supplication (du'a) in Witr at the end of the Tahajjud prayer, along with the weeping of the worshippers?

Tahajjud prayer in the mosque is permissible for both men and women. However, it is better for a woman to pray in her home. If she does go out to the mosque, she must adhere to the Islamic regulations. The Witr qunut supplication is short and authentically transmitted, and it is disliked to prolong it beyond the usual measure.
