what is sunnah
Sunnah is the name given to the deeds of the Prophet apart from fard and wajib that he himself did, that he told others âto doâ and that he consented to. Sunnahs are classified under the heading of â supererogatory â (nafilah).Sunnahs are divided into two: 1 â Sunnah al-muakkada, 2 â Sunnah ghayr muakkada. Sunnah al-Muakkada: They are the sunnahs that our Prophet generally did but rarely abandoned. It means strong sunnah; like the sunnah prayers of the morning, noon and evening prayers. Sunnahs like adhan, iqamah, praying in congregation, which are regarded as fundamentals of Islam, are sunnah al-muakkada.
