Sunnah prayers are optional prayers performed by Muslims in addition to the obligatory (fard) prayers. There are two types of Sunnah prayers: those performed before or after the obligatory prayers and those performed independently. Examples of Sunnah prayers include two rak'ahs before the Fajr (Dawn) prayer, four rak'ahs before the Zhuhr (Midday) prayer, and two rak'ahs after the Maghrib (Sunset) prayer. The Prophet Muhammad encouraged the observance of Sunnah prayers and stated that those who are diligent in performing them will be rewarded with a house in Heaven. The number of Sunnah prayers per day varies depending on the prayer time, with different rak'ahs for each prayer. During Sunnah prayers, it is recommended to recite specific verses from the Quran. The Prophet Muhammad himself would perform Sunnah prayers during the night and would conclude with the witr prayer.
