QUICK LESSONS:
Pray witr before dawn
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ advised Muslims to pray witr, which is an additional prayer that is performed after the Isha prayer and before the Fajr prayer. It consists of an odd number of rakats, usually three or five. This hadith encourages Muslims to perform this extra prayer before dawn as it will bring them closer to Allah and increase their reward in the hereafter. Additionally, it teaches us that we should always strive for excellence in our worship and not be content with just fulfilling our basic obligations.

The Prophet ﷺ also taught us that when we are praying, we should focus on what we are saying and make sure that our hearts are present in the supplication so that Allah can accept it from us. We should also remember to prostrate properly during each rakat so as not to miss out on any rewards due to negligence or carelessness.

In conclusion, this hadith reminds us of the importance of performing extra prayers such as witr and encourages us to do so with sincerity and dedication in order for Allah's blessings upon us.
