I’tikaaf

Praying on the Night of Qadr while also doing I’tikaf raises the spiritual vitality of this night and multiplies the rewards. But here’s a bonus fact; No one knows exactly when this night unfolds. What we can learn from different hadiths is that it’s on one of the odd nights. This is also a good thing as it motivates the believer to focus on each night and worship with devotion, Allah’s blessings.
Taraweeh Prayer
Taraweeh is a night prayer observed during Ramadan in sets of 2 until finishing at 8 or 20 rakats. In the Prophet’s time, everyone used to perform this prayer in seclusion. However, in the caliphate of Hazrat Umar R.A., he made it obligatory to perform this prayer in the mosque behind one Imam. In one instance, Umar R.A. saw Muslims praying Taraweeh behind the imam in the mosque. He smiled and said, ‘What a beautiful innovation (in religion) this is.’

Indeed, these moments make a believer emotional which is a healthy sign of his spirit, relishing these moments.
