Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

Praying the Witr Prayer in Congregation

 


Question:

Is it permissible to pray the Witr in congregation in other than the month of Ramadan, like, if some people were upon a journey, and the time for the Witr prayer arrived, should they pray in congregation even if it is once?
Answer:

There is no problem if a person prays the supererogatory prayers in congregation some of the time, because this is established from the Prophet sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam in the night prayer, that he prayed with Ibn Abbaas may Allaah be pleased with them, and he prayed with Abdullaah bin Masood, and he prayed with Hudhayfah ibn al-Yamaan; all of this is mentioned in the Sunnah so if they were to do this, and not take it as a established Sunnah then there is no objection to it.
