EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of prayer in Islam, particularly the voluntary prayers that are done at night. It is narrated by Ibn 'Umar that the Prophet Muhammad used to pray two voluntary prayers at night and one Rakah of Witr. These prayers are known as Nawafil and they are a way for Muslims to increase their faith and connection with Allah. Additionally, it is believed that Laylatul Qadr, which is a special night during Ramadan where Allah's blessings are abundant, can be found in any of the odd nights during this month. Therefore, praying these extra voluntary prayers can help Muslims gain more rewards from Allah on this special night.
