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.
Tawakkul is an Islamic concept that refers to the complete trust and reliance on God's plan. It is considered a key teaching of Islam, with many Quranic verses and hadiths speaking about it. Tawakkul can be understood as having full hope in Allah and placing one's reliance in Him. It is seen as a liberating principle that provides support and strength when facing challenges and trials that may seem unsurmountable. The Arabic word for trust, تَوَكَّل, is the basis of Tawakkul. The concept of Tawakkul is closely related to Sabr, which is another Islamic concept that refers to patience and perseverance. Finally, Tawakkul can be considered as God-consciousness or perfect faith in Allah.
