Tarawih in Ramadhan

Solat Tarawih is the extra prayer that is performed during the night on the month of Ramadhan. Although it is not as compulsory as the 5 Compulsary Daily Prayer which takes place during Subuh, Zohor, Asar, Maghrib and Isyak. Tarawih is the plural word of Tarweeha which means to rest.
