Post tactics from the Najdorf opening here. The most instructive tactics will probably be those that come from the early moves as opposed to those 40-60+ moves into the game (unless there is special feature from those endgames that is common to the Najdorf). Also, remember that explanations and/or lines will be useful, especially in an opening as complicated as this one.
