Yes, Isha is the true night prayer. Maghrib happens just after sunset, but Isha begins only when night fully settles. Spiritually, it represents closure—the final prayer of the day and a chance to hand everything over to Allah before sleep. It’s quiet, reflective, and deeply personal.
The gap exists because Isha starts only after twilight completely disappears. That time allows the sky to fully darken. It’s also a moment of rest and reflection between the two prayers—a small pause before night truly begins. Many people use it to eat, spend time with family, or quietly prepare for Isha.
Isha’s four obligatory rak‘ahs take around five to eight minutes, depending on your pace. Add a couple of minutes if you include Sunnah or Witr. It’s not long—but those few minutes can completely change how you feel before sleeping. It’s the calmest way to close your day.
Yes, after the four obligatory rak‘ahs of Isha, it’s Sunnah to pray two additional rak‘ahs. The Prophet ﷺ consistently prayed them and encouraged believers to do the same. They’re simple and short but carry immense reward. Think of them as your gentle goodnight prayer to Allah before bed.
