Question
What is the difference between Salaat Tahajjud and Salaat lail and Salaat witr?
Answer
According to Imaam Abu Hanifa, Witr Salaat is Waajib (compulsory). It is
subordinate to performing Esha Salaat.
Tahajjud Salaat (Salaatul-layl) is Nafl Salaat and may be performed at any
portion of the night.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
