Witr from 21st night till 30th night will be led according to Tahajjud Schedule.

The schedule is structured to guide worshipers through each of the 30 nights of Ramadan, with clear details on which imam will lead specific segments of the Taraweeh prayers. Here’s how to interpret the table:

Taraweeh prayers during Ramadan are divided into three parts:

  • First Rakats mean: 6 Rakats
  • Second Rakats mean: 4 Rakats
  • Last Rakats mean: 2 Rakats + 3 Witr (a special prayer)

When Sheikh Sudais leads the Taraweeh:

  • 4 Rakats will be led by Imams in first and second rakats and last 2 rakats and Witr will be led by Sheikh Sudais.

  3. Sheikh Abdullah Juhany
  4. Sheikh Bandar Baleelah
  5. Sheikh Yasir Dawsary
  6. Sheikh Badr Al Turki
  7. Sheikh Waleed Al Shamsan

To accommodate the millions of worshipers expected at Masjid Al Haram, the Presidency has implemented several measures, such as additional areas around the mosque will be allocated for Taraweeh prayers. Advanced systems will ensure smooth movement and safety for pilgrims.

Taraweeh prayers will be streamed globally for those unable to attend in person.

  1. I was truly expecting the coming back of the Eminent Imam Sheikh Sa’ud Al Shuraim. Sincerely, since his resignation, I no longer follow the Taraweeh assiduously. May the Almighty God Be Pleased with him.
