Question
As women are prevented from doing tawaaf during Taraweeh prayer, is it better for a man to do tawaaf or carry on with Taraweeh prayer?
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah:
It is better to carry on with Taraweeh prayer so that he will be regarded as having spent the entire night in prayer, and there are other times when he can do tawaaf. End quote.
Majmoo‘ Fatawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (24/53).
