Tahajjud, (Arabic: تَهَجُّد) also known as the "night prayer" or "Qiyam-u-lail", is a voluntary prayer performed by followers of Islam. It is not one of the five obligatory prayers required of all Muslims , although the Islamic prophet Muhammad was recorded as performing the tahajjud prayer regularly himself and encouraging his companions.
Tahajjud is generally concluded with Witr salah. [72] Shia Muslims offer similar prayers, called Salawat al-Layl (Arabic: صَلَوَات اللَّيل). These are considered highly meritorious, consist of 11 rak'a: 8 nafl (performed as 4 prayers of 2 rak'a each) followed by 3 witr, [74] and can be offered in the same time as Tahajjud. [73]

Witr (Arabic: وتر) is an Islamic prayer (salat) that is performed at night after Isha (night-time prayer) or before fajr (dawn prayer). Witr has an odd number of raka'at prayed in pairs, with the final raka'ah prayed separately.
the rakah of the tahajjud comprises as two rakah and two rakah and so on but not more than 14 rakah.
