Summary

The fatwa states there is no need to rank which is more virtuous between the Tarawih prayer and a special Ramadan talk after Isha. Each has its own merit and both are strongly encouraged for reviving the nights of Ramadan. Since the time for Tarawih extends until before dawn, holding a talk first is not wrong because it does not prevent the prayer from being performed afterwards.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Namun demikian, tiada keperluan untuk membezakan kedudukan amalan yang lebih afdal untuk dilakukan selepas solat isyak pada bulan Ramadan diantara solat sunat tarawih dan tazkirah atau ceramah khas Ramadan.
