Please clarify with authentic ahadees that how many rakah for taraweeh is to be performed.

As some perform eight(8) and some 20.As i follow Hanafi School,what shoudl i do if in area where
am residing in all masajid taraweeh is of 8 rakah.

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful


Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

You should definitely perform 20 rak‘ats of Tarāwīh. For more detailed information, kindly visit the following link:

Taraweeh – 20 rakat or 8 rakat??

If there are no Masjids in your locality performing 20 rak‘ats, you can join them for the 8 rak‘ats and perform the remaining 12 individually at home.

And Allah knows best
