Allah Ta'ala said: "Except for the practice of fasting. The practice of fasting is for Me. I will answer it myself. Because he has left lust and food because of Me. For the person who fasts will get two happiness, namely happiness when he breaks his fast and happiness when he meets his Lord. Indeed, the smell of the mouth of a fasting person is more fragrant in the sight of God than the smell of musk oil." (HR. Bukhari 1904, 5927 and Muslim 1151).
Worship that is only found in the holy month of Ramadan is fasting and tarawih prayer. Therefore, you must understand the guidance for the intention of tarawih prayer along with witr.

From Aisha, may God be pleased with her, she said, "The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, never prayed more than eleven rak'ahs in the month of Ramadan and outside of Ramadan". He performed it the best and after that he performed witr at home." (HR. Muslim). The guide to the intention of tarawih prayer along with witr is also found in other hadiths. As for the tarawih prayer of 20 rakats, the hadith used is "Umar bin Khathtab radhiyallahu 'anhu ordered Ubay bin Ka'ab to lead the tarawih prayer on the night of Ramadan with a total of 20 rak'ahs. (HR. Bukhari and Muslim)".
In the hadith explained by Prophet Muhammad SAW, it is said that the virtue of tarawih prayer is forgiveness of past sins. Prophet Muhammad SAW said "Whoever worships (tarawih) in the month of Ramadan with faith and sincerity, his past sins will be forgiven" (HR Al-Bukhari, Muslim, and others). Therefore, the importance of tarawih prayer is not wasted by Muslims all over the world.

The priority of tarawih prayer in the month of Ramadan.
The priority of tarawih prayer is very important in Islam and there are several hadiths that mention this priority:
1. A practice full of blessings.
Tarawih prayer is among the blessed practices. In a hadith narrated by Bukhari and Muslim, the Prophet said, "Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and expects reward, his past sins will surely be forgiven. And whoever performs Qiyam (Tarawih) prayer in Ramadan out of faith and expects reward, surely forgiven of his past sins.
2. Get a great reward.
In a hadith narrated by Muslim, the Prophet said, "Whoever prays at night in the month of Ramadan out of faith and hoping for a reward, his past sins will be forgiven.
3. Eliminate sin.
Tarawih prayer is one of the ways to erase past sins. In the hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah, the Messenger of Allah said, "Whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan and follows it with six rak'ah prayers after sunset (Maghrib prayer), then it is guaranteed for him with God's guarantee that he will come out of his sins as he was new. born from his mother.
4. Degree increase.
In a hadith, the Prophet said, "Whoever stands (prayer) in the month of Ramadan out of faith and expects a reward from God, his past sins will be forgiven." This shows that Tarawih Salat can increase a person's status in front of Allah SWT.
5. The main night worship.
In a hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah, the Messenger of Allah said, "Indeed, Allah has made it obligatory for you to pray the night prayer (Taraweeh) in the month of Ramadan; that prayer is the sunnah of muakkadah (the emphasized sunnah) and whoever does not perform it, then he has neglected the (very important) sunnah. .
