#4. The Prophet prayed 8 rak`at of taraweeh and 3 rak`at of witr
`A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) was asked about the Prophet’s night prayer; she said:
“he did not pray more than 11 rak`at [a night] in Ramadan or any other month. he used to pray 4 rak`at -don’t ask me about their beauty and length–and then he would pray 4 more rak`at-don’t ask me about their beauty and length–and then he would pray 3 rak`at (of witr).” (Al-Bukhari)
#5. The Prophet did not assign any number for taraweeh prayer
When he was asked about night prayer, he said: “Prayers at night are offered in two followed by two. Then, if you fear dawn will come, pray witr with one.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)
#6. Finish taraweeh with the Imam & get the reward of entire night
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Whoever prays qiyam with the imam until he finishes, Allah will record for him the qiyam of a (whole) night.” (An-Nasa’i and authenticated by Al-Albani)
Do NOT leave after 8, if the imam is praying 20 or 36!
