Dream - Tarawih prayer is performed after performing the Isha prayer and before the Witr prayer. After the Isha prayer, there is usually time for prayer and also for performing the post-Isha prayer. However, not every worshipper performs the post-Isha prayer. Therefore, after the Isha prayer, they only pray and wait until the Tarawih prayer begins. So, what is the Islamic view on this matter? Considering that the post-Isha prayer and the Tarawih prayer are both voluntary prayers.

So, someone who performs the ba'diyah sunnah prayer will receive additional rewards. However, if they miss it without a valid reason, they will not be sinful. Tarawih prayer, on the other hand, is a sunnah prayer performed throughout the month of Ramadan. The ruling for tarawih prayer is that it is recommended for both men and women. Therefore, those who perform tarawih prayer will receive rewards, while those who do not will not be sinful, and their fasting will still be valid as long as they do not engage in prohibited actions.

This is in accordance with the strong opinion, the ba'diyah isya prayer is part of the sunnah rawatib prayer which is more preferable than the tarawih prayer. As explained in Fathul Mu'in by Syekh Zainuddin Al-Malibari: "The most preferable sunnah prayer is the Eid al-Adha prayer, then the Eid al-Fitr prayer, then the solar eclipse prayer, then the lunar eclipse prayer, then the prayer for rain, then the two rak'ahs of qobliyah subuh prayer, then other rawathib prayers, all rawathib in the same level, then the tarawih prayer, then the dhuha prayer, then the two rak'ahs of tawaf, tahiyatul masjid and the sunnah prayer of ihram, then the sunnah prayer of wudhu."

Sholat ba'diyah isya and sholat tarawih have the same time of execution. However, according to the rules, if there are two prayers that coincide at the same time, the one with the closest ending time should be prioritized. This is explained by Imam An-Nawawi in the book Al-Majmu': "Imam Shafi'i and his students, may Allah bless them, said: If two prayers coincide at the same time, then the prayer that is feared to be missed should be prioritized, followed by the prayer with stronger recommendation."

Regarding the determination of which prayer is more preferable, there are differences of opinion among scholars. The first opinion is a strong opinion. Where the sunnah rawatib prayer is more preferable than the tarawih prayer. This is because Prophet Muhammad always performed the sunnah rawatib prayer. While the tarawih prayer is not always performed. Therefore, there is an exception to the rule: "Worship that is prescribed in congregation is more preferable than worship that is not prescribed in congregation."

The second opinion states that tarawih prayer is more preferable than rawatib prayer. This is based on the general rule: "Worship that is prescribed in congregation is more preferable than worship that is not prescribed in congregation." So, based on the above opinions, Dream friends can rely on the strongest one. Which is recommended to perform ba'diyah isya prayer first, then tarawih prayer.
