The Vitr prayer from the point of view of the book of “Halyabi Kabir”


Abstract
There is a big disagreement in matters of the Vitr prayer, in the number of rakahats and in the structure itself. And there is an urgent need to clarify its essence in the Hanafi legal school from the point of view of the book of Halyabi Kabir. This article contains four topics (questions) in which the definitions of the Vitr prayer, its position (hukm), the number of rakahats, the prayer of Kunut among the Hanafites are studied. The article presents disagreements regarding the religious position of the Witr prayer, which opinion is the most correct with evidence, why Hanafis perform three rakʼahs of Witr prayer, the Qunut prayer is read before the bow, and not after it, and which of the Qunut prayers is better to read in our madhhab. In the conclusion of the article there are conclusions that have been reached and this is that Witr prayer in the Hanafi madhhab: is wajib, the one who does not perform it is considered to have committed a sin, but whoever denies its obligatory nature is not deduced from Islam (is not a kafir); consists of three rakʼats with one salam; the Qunut prayer is read before bowing from the waist.
