evening prayers
Dusk worship service
Evening prayers are religious devotions performed at the end of the day, typically before bed.
The practice appears across traditions—Christians may say vespers or compline, Muslims perform maghrib and isha, Jews recite maariv.
The phrase can refer to formal liturgical services or private devotions: The monks gathered for evening prayers.
