Maariv

Maariw (also Ma'ariv ) (Hebrew מעריב ) is the first significant word of the Jewish evening prayer. It is made of Erev, Hebrew ערב for " evening " derived.

Maariv, the conversion of the word Erev is a verb and means " zoom spend the night ." Another name is Arbit, Arvit or Arawit, this is the verbal noun.

Jews are commanded to pray three times a day. The times for the individual prayers are precisely defined; after sunset until midnight the evening prayers ( Ma'ariv ) must be prayed for. This prayer consists essentially of the Shema and the Amidah.
